Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett is a huge fan of Russell Wilson.
Denver sent shockwaves through the NFL when they traded for the superstar quarterback, and Wilson will now be tasked with returning the Broncos to glory. (RELATED: David Hookstead Is The True King In The North When It Comes To College Football)
To say Hackett is excited would be an understatement.

It got better from there. He also said he’s super excited to meet Wilson’s famous wife Ciara, who is an outstanding singer.

Do we think people are excited in Denver for Wilson to start slinging the ball around or do we think people are excited?

I think the answer to that question is a very obvious yes. I mean, the coach looked like a giddy child during the press conference.
As a football fan and as a fan of Russell Wilson, that’s the kind of energy you want to see out of coaches. It’s clear that Hackett has big plans for the star quarterback.

The question now is whether or not Wilson will live up to the hype. I certainly wouldn’t want to bet against him!
