Richard Sherman advised Seahawks on defending Russell Wilson

The Seahawks will be playing against a familiar face tonight as they host Russell Wilson and the Broncos. While no team knows Wilson better than this one, Seattle is still going the extra mile to prepare for him.

Former superstar Richard Sherman has been around practice lately, helping coach up rookie cornerbacks Coby Bryant and Tariq Woolen.

That’s not all he’s up too, though. According to Gregg Bell at the News Tribune, the team has been hitting up Sherman for advice on how to defend Wilson Week 1.

While it’s great to have a mind like Sherman’s to help, the talent disparity between these teams is pretty substantial. Heading into the season, Denver is considered one of the top contenders in a loaded AFC, while Seattle is ranked near the bottom of most power rankings. An upset would be a great way to start the season but the odds aren’t great.
