Russell Wilson is under contract for nearly a quarter of a billion dollars, but when the game was on the line Monday night at Seattle, Denver Broncos head coach Nathaniel Hackett opted to try a long field goal instead of letting his veteran quarterback get a first down on fourth-and-five.
Denver kicker Brandon McManus missed a 64-yard field goal attempt, the Broncos lost and Hackett admitted he should have left Wilson on the field. Chances are Wilson will lead an attempt if the same situation arises when Denver (0-1) hosts the Houston Texans (0-0-1) on Sunday.
The Broncos won’t have safety Justin Simmons on the field this week — and beyond. Simmons, who has started 66 straight games, was placed on injured reserve with a thigh injury on Wednesday and will miss at least four weeks.
