RUSSELL WILSON has dominated headlines this season, and Travis Kelce thinks Wilson’s loving it.
Marred by poor performances and an underwhelming 3-5 record, Wilson’s debut season with the Denver Broncos hasn’t gone according to anyone’s predictions.
That being said, the $245 million man has managed to keep himself in the headlines, partly due to heavy criticism, but also partly due to his own eccentricity.
Whether it’s via creepy Subway commercials or admitting to spending four hours working out “walking up and down the aisles” mid-flight while his teammates slept around him, Wilson continues to divide opinions.
Now, speaking to his brother and Philadelphia Eagles center, Jason, on the New Heights podcast, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has said that he believes Wilson is “just trolling us with this.”
He elaborated: “Like he just feeds us with just nonsense at this point, because he was smiling. Did you see his interview when he explained what he was doing? He was smiling. Like mischievously the entire time.”
Travis went on to say: “He was answering the questions about what he was doing on the plane.
“He went through every hour of how he approached it. And he had a game plan if, that’s if it’s real, but I think there’s a little bit of him trolling and just loves to see the world just absolutely rip him a new one on social media.”
And while Jason believes there’s no way a story like this could have been made up, Travis isn’t so sure, saying: “There’s no way he was doing high knees in the aisle man.”
He continued: “If he’s doing that I immediately turn into a class clown, I’m throwing paper balls at him, I’m throwing milk cartons at him, I’m doing everything to just mess with him since he’s doing all these shenanigans on the plane.
“All these extra shenanigans that probably isn’t going to do anything to make him more prepared for the game.”
Real or not, whatever Wilson did do to prepare for their Wembley game seems to have worked, given that they left London with a 21-17 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars.
