ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Russell Wilson has cleared the concussion protocol but will not play Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals after coach Nathaniel Hackett said the Denver Broncos decided to sit the quarterback for one game.
Hackett said Wilson, who will be a game-day inactive, will start Christmas Day against the Los Angeles Rams. Brett Rypien will start against the Cardinals.
"As an organization, we decided to give [Wilson] another week to get ready so he's ready to go for the Los Angeles Rams," Hackett said after Friday's practice.
