Thumbs Down
More picks: Another day, another play where Justin Simmons gets the best of Russell Wilson. This time, it came on the quarterback’s first throw of competitive 11-on-11 drills, with Wilson seemingly trying to fit a ball into triple coverage only for the pass to sail over the intended target and into the arms of Simmons.
While Simmons deserves a tip of the cap for his third straight day with a pick of his teammate, Wilson’s errant throw and questionable decision-making warrants a wag of the finger.
The pick was the first of two interceptions thrown by Russ on Wednesday, with the second coming in the last red zone period and again featuring a debatable decision followed by an errant throw. Wilson had a target toward the left corner of the end zone, but instead opted to squeeze the ball into a small window with Jeudy streaking across the middle. The throw was behind Jeudy, and K’Waun Williams made a spectacular play on the ball, holding on through contact with one of his defensive teammates. So, yeah, two guys were right there.
Odds and Ends
• In addition to the two interceptions, Russell Wilson also missed an open Jerry Jeudy for what may have been a touchdown at the start of the second red zone session.
