The season for Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson hasn't been an easy one.

He's struggled, and injuries haven't helped their situation on offense. Wilson has shown more impressive flashes over the last few weeks, though.

He played fairly well against the Chiefs in Week 17, albeit a close loss. Wilson threw for 222 yards, one touchdown, a done interception. The veteran also ran for 27 yards and two TDs.

The offense looked formidable against the Kansas City Chiefs, so that was a bright spot for a rough 2022-2023.

In the loss, Wilson joined some legendary company in the record books.

Wilson has 305 TD passes and 26 rushing TDs. The Broncos QB is just the sixth player in NFL history to accomplish those feats.

Tom Brady, Drew Brees, Aaron Rodgers, Fran Tarkenton, and John Elway are the only other quarterbacks to put up those numbers.

In a season that has been frustrating, the QB is still setting records as a member of the Broncos.

Wilson and the Broncos need to try to gain some confidence to end the season. They'll face the Los Angeles Chargers this week, so it'll be a tall task.

Regardless, another solid performance from the offense may go a long way for their momentum going into the off-season. There will be plenty of transitions to make over the next few months.
