Russ will adapt. What he loses physically he'll make up for mentally.

Maybe. Not sure a thumb injury contributes to your legs. Wilson's height might make things a bit different too. I would be slightly concerned that he's lost some of what made him so great at avoiding pressure and keeping plays alive. Can Russ evolve as more of a pocket passer in the twilight of his career?
