Russell Wilson has been the butt of everyone’s jokes so far this week. Not only has he been playing horribly this season, but the Russisms haven’t stopped, from his overwhelming positivity to doing high knees over the Atlantic Ocean.
So, let’s find a way to bet against him.
This pick have been made using Sean Koerner’s expert projections at Action Labs. Let’s see if we can find some value in the numbers for Week 8’s London matchup.
Russell Wilson
Under 12.5 Rushing Yards
If Wilson has to be doing high knees on an airplane to stay loose, it’s fair to say that his legs aren’t at 100%.
Wilson was reportedly dealing with a shoulder injury earlier this season, and then his hamstring is what kept him out of a Week 7 loss to the Jets.
Now, the artist formerly known as DangeRuss is ready to play in London. As of Saturday afternoon, his rushing total was 12.5 yards. Action Labs projections have Wilson pegged at 8.0 even.
Wilson has gone over this total in each of his last four appearances for the Broncos, but that was when he was slightly more healthy. This is the biggest edge to fade Wilson on Sunday morning against the Jaguars.
