SEATTLE (AP) — When Russell Wilson made the decision to transfer to Wisconsin for his final college season, he became connected with Kirk Cousins.
It started that season when Wilson’s Badgers and Cousins’ Michigan State squad played a pair of memorable games, including a Big Ten championship game won by Wilson. It continued that offseason as the pair ended up working out together at the same facility to get ready for the NFL draft.
And now in their eighth NFL seasons, they are again connected because of the success of their teams and their individual performances as two of the best quarterbacks in the league this year.
