Russell Wilson is truly back.
Despite the backlash the Pittsburgh Steelers have received for changing from Justin Fields to the veteran quarterback, Wilson was still put in the starting position on Sunday Night Football against the New York Jets.
Before he took the field, Russell Wilson found himself going viral after he did his Sunday Night introduction.
Once his face came up on the screen, he said:
“Russell Wilson, from a whole pack of Badgers.”
Wilson attended the University of Wisconsin–Madison for just one season.
In just one season at Wisconsin, Wilson connected on 225 of 309 passes (72.8%) for 3,175 yards, 33 touchdowns, and only four interceptions.
Here is how fans reacted to what he said:
Russell spent more time with North Carolina State.
Wilson led the 2010 Wolfpack to a 9–4 season and was named second-team All-ACC and runner-up for ACC Football Player of the Year.
That year, he graduated from NC State in three years with a BA in communication and took graduate-level business courses in the fall semester during the 2010 football season.
Russell Wilson Initially Won Starting Job Before His Injury
Coach Mike Tomlin announced that Wilson will be the starting QB when the Steelers opened the season on Sept. 8, but an injury would keep him out for weeks.
The veteran quarterback finally opened his season on Sunday Night Football against the Jets.
All he has to do is play well, and he will continue to be the starting QB despite Justin Fields having a winning record.

Travis Kelce is proud to have girlfriend Taylor Swift by his side, and he doesn’t mind that the whole world is watching.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dating since at least September 2023 when she shocked everybody by showing up to Arrowhead Stadium. The move came months after Kelce first publicly expressed interest in Swift, after attending one of her concerts and failing to send a friendship bracelet to her with his number on it.
Travis Kelce knows just how obsessed the world is with his relationship.
“I’m very aware,” Kelce said when asked whether he understands the “impact” his romance with Taylor Swift was having on the NFL.
“Obviously, this is mostly because Taylor’s in my life now and we got her [to be] part of Chiefs Kingdom,” he explained in a resurfaced interview with sports reporter Laura Okmin ahead of the Super Bowl.
“And sure enough, that brought an entire entourage of human beings who just love to support her and love to support everything that she’s about.”
He used an incredible word to describe their relationship.
“With that being said, I do, you know, have a guarded approach to it,” he explained before Super Bowl 58. “But at the same time, I know what me and Taylor have is special, so I get [the interest].”
Taylor Swift was spotted at 13 of Travis Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs football games this past season, first popping up in a box at Arrowhead Stadium in Missouri on Sept. 24, 2023. The team won 10 of the 13 games at which she’s been in attendance.
That also included the team winning playoff games over the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills, Baltimore Ravens, and then the San Francisco 49ers in the Super Bowl.
Kelce finished the Super Bowl with nine receptions for 93 yards, including a crucial catch in overtime.
The 34-year-old slowed down slightly in 2023, finishing with 93 catches for 984 yards and five touchdowns. It should be noted he did miss two games, Week 1 due to injury and Week 17 as he chose to sit out with the Chiefs not playing for anything.
