One of the primary reasons behind Wilson’s poor performance was his injuries from last year. His right knee bothered him for a while, eventually taking a toll on his yearly statistics.
As a result, Wilson underwent surgery which is supposed to be a minor cleanup for the upcoming campaign, per NFL.com. His throwing shoulder also experienced some pain during the 2022 regular season; however, it seems to have healed.
Can we expect Wilson to make a comeback?
Well, it completely depends on how the veteran prepares this off-season. The expectations will be comparatively less, unlike last year’s hype that eventually doomed his overall performance.
Moreover, the head coach position at Broncos is now decorated with a legendary prospect in the form of Sean Payton. Thus he can choose whether to continue for the remaining four seasons or find himself in an uncomfortable situation.
Recently, the management also acquired Jarret Stidham to improve their quarterback depth chart. If Wilson fails to showcase his abilities, Payton can definitely take his chances upon Stidham to start the games. As this is a developing story, readers can stay tuned for more updates.
