Broncos’ Russell Wilson on Pete Carroll’s wristband comments: “I won a lot of games there without one”

The soured relationship between quarterback Russell Wilson and Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll, one of the driving factors in the QB’s blockbuster trade to Denver this offseason, came into public view again Wednesday.

In an appearance on Seattle Sports 710 AM, Carroll said Geno Smith’s use of a wristband has been one of the factors behind Smith and the Seahawks’ surprisingly good season so far. Smith is fifth in the NFL in yardage at 2,199 and leads the league with a 73.1 completion percentage.

Wilson responded to that thinly veiled critique Wednesday before practice. The quarterback doesn’t traditionally wear a wristband, but had one on in the Broncos’ win over the Jaguars in Week 8 in London. The quarterback added that he does “whatever it takes to make sure we’re rolling ,” and if he’s not wearing a wristband, it’s because he doesn’t think it’s necessary.
