Pro Bowl quarterback Russell Wilson is not just immersing himself with the Denver Broncos organization.
Instead, he’s also making rounds in support of the other sports teams in the Mile High City.
Aside from attending Denver Nuggets games, he also cheered for the University of Denver Pioneers when they won the NCAA Men’s Hockey National Championship over Minnesota State.
Wilson also made a ceremonial pitch for Major League Baseball’s Colorado Rockies.
Speaking of the Rockies, he was seen sporting the team’s uniform with another Broncos legend.

The Sporting News MLB Twitter account shared a picture of Wilson and Pro Football Hall of Famer Peyton Manning donning the Rockies uniform.
The caption reads, “Just a couple of football players sporting some @Rockies threads.”
Manning was the last quarterback to lead the Broncos to a Super Bowl victory.
He did it in Super Bowl 50 against the Carolina Panthers which also ended up as his last NFL game.
Meanwhile, Wilson also has one Super Bowl with the Seattle Seahawks and he would like to deliver the Broncos’ fourth Vince Lombardi Trophy.
Wilson might remember some college memories from the photo, given that he also played baseball at North Carolina State.
Likewise, the Rockies could also use some help because they are struggling.
As of writing, they are last in the National League West with a 27-37 record, 2.5 games away from the Arizona Diamondbacks.
No Help Needed For The Broncos
Wilson’s arrival should complete the Broncos’ ascent to becoming legitimate contenders.
They have a talented offensive unit that can overwhelm opposing defenses and he can activate them when needed.
It won’t be surprising to see Wilson and the Broncos mounting big leads against their foes.
Therefore, anything less than a playoff berth would be a disaster for Denver.
