Report: Russell Wilson's Birthday Party Attended by 'About Half' of Broncos Players

Russell Wilson is 34 years old and might want a drink at his party.

About half the team attended a celebration thrown by Wilson's wife.

There’s been some gossip about Russell Wilson’s standing in locker room. Here’s some context. Per source Wilson’s wife Ciara thru him a birthday party last night and “it looked like about half the team was there.” On player’s day off. Why do people have to be so hurtful? #9sports

It's not clear whether Wilson's teammates have grown fed up with him.

It was easy to write off the stare toward the nine-time Pro Bowler as an innocuous moment. It was difficult to dismiss a brief exchange between nose tackle Mike Purcell and Wilson.

The players wanted to move on immediately.

Some of Wilson's teammates looked at him side-eyed when he was doing all kinds of goofy stuff in the off-season.

The report is bound to be the subject of mockery, yet it shows what appears to be a big problem for the Broncos. You don't want the star quarterback you just signed to lose the locker room in the first year of his contract.
