Russell Wilson is heading into what could be the most important season of his career following his underwhelming first campaign for the Denver Broncos in 2022. And the quarterback is enjoying some time off ahead of what should be a very interesting season, with Sean Payton now in charge of the team.
Things could have gone horribly wrong for him as reports claim he narrowly escaped a serious injury, having gotten involved in a recent golf cart accident.
According to Mat Smith, host of 104.3 The Fan, the QB flipped the cart into a bunker at the Arrowhead Golf Couse in Littleton, Colorado on Saturday. Thankfully, no one was hurt.
It appears Wilson did not see the bunker while looking for his ball and drove straight into it.
Such an incident could have totally ruined what he totally hopes will be his comeback season in 2023 and could have also put Denver in a serious bind, given what they had to give up to get Payton as their head coach.
It’s also pretty ironic that the accident took place on a golf course with the same name as the Broncos’ biggest divisional rivals, the Kansas City Chiefs.

Fortunately for everyone, the signal-caller did not cart himself to a freak injury and should be ready to go under his new coach next term.
