Russell Wilson’s greatest strength is starting to betray him at Giants camp

We all know that Russell Wilson’s majestic moon ball is the most alluring aspect of his game. In his prime, he would spin out of pressure, extend plays, and drop a 40-yard dime on the run like it was effortless.

It was plays like that that encapsulated the 10-time Pro Bowler’s time in Seattle. But now 36, Wilson’s deep ball has remained, but his athleticism has begun to fade as the signal-caller enters Father Time. Now a New York Giant, the vertical element of the offense he’s provided has seen his connections with Malik Nabers, Wan’Dale Robinson, and Jalin Hyatt blossom.
