Russell Wilson Leads Late Game-Winning Drive, Goes Over 200 Yards

12 months ago

Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson wasn't excellent by any means in Week 11 against the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday Night Football, but he once again made plays when it mattered and didn't turn the ball over to lead his team to a one-point victory and their fourth straight win. Wilson finished 27-for-35 for 259 yards -- his first time topping the 200-yard mark since Week 4 -- one touchdown and no interceptions. He ran the ball only twice for one yard and was sacked twice for a loss of 10 yards. The 34-year-old veteran's lone TD pass was a 15-yard jump ball to his favorite target, receiver Courtland Sutton, that initially looked like it might be intercepted. Wilson now has 19 TDs and just four interceptions on the year, checking in as a low-end QB1 streamer/high-end QB2 most weeks in fantasy. He'll be more of a QB2 fade in Week 12, though, against the vaunted Cleveland Browns defense.
