Denver Broncos fans are eager to see Russell Wilson take the field for the first time since acquiring the star quarterback from the Seattle Seahawks. While there's still plenty of time until the regular season, fans have been able to catch glimpses of Wilson in the Broncos' Orange. The quarterback had a media appearance on Monday during which he unveiled a slightly corny, but very fitting, new catchphrase that we're sure he will speak into existence in Denver. Via Dov Kleiman, Wilson revealed his new motto, “Broncos Country, let's ride.”

Well, love it or hate it, the smile on Wilson's face suggests he's completely sold on his new catchphrase, and that it's something that won't be going away anytime soon. No longer flying with the Seahawks, Wilson is prepared to ride on into the next chapter of his career with the Broncos, and hopefully deliver a Super Bowl victory to Denver in the process.
Of course, Wilson's famous “Let Russ Cook” catchphrase, which he actually trademarked, will never vanish. But it looks as if he's trying to start something new now that he's in Denver. Broncos fans should get ready to hear “let's ride” on a regular basis.
The Broncos were hellbent on acquiring a new quarterback this offseason. While their priority target was Aaron Rodgers, it didn't take long for them to pivot to a move for Wilson after the reigning MVP re-upped with the Packers. To acquire Wilson, the Broncos offloaded Drew Lock, Noah Fant, Shelby Harris, as well as a plethora of valuable draft capital, including first-round picks in 2022 and 2023.
