Injury Update On Broncos Russell Wilson

He took a scary-looking hit on Sunday.

With regard to Wilson's status for this week, Hackett said, ''We'll go through the step-by-step process and do it the right way.''

Praying for Russell Wilson after this hit. Hope he is okay. Looks dizzy, not right. His eyes were bugged out.

According to Jeff Legwold of ESPN, Wilson said he ''felt great" when he was examined by the team's medical staff on Monday. 

With the team in a losing season, and having given Wilson a massive contract last offseason, the Broncos may opt to be cautious and hold the quarterback out this week and maybe more. If Wilson can't go this week, Brett Rypien will fill in at quarterback.

In 12 games this season, the thirty-four-year-old Wilson has thrown for 2,805 yards, 11 touchdowns and six interceptions, to go along with a 60.4 completion percentage, the lowest mark of his career.
