Jonas Griffith can't wait to face Russell Wilson and the Pittsburgh Steelers.
fans will get the chance to express their feelings about Russell Wilson in Week 2. It's a safe bet that the TV cameras will be glued to the inevitable non-handshake between Broncos head coach Sean Payton and Wilson when the Pittsburgh Steelers arrive at Mile High in Week 2.
Payton will likely walk a fine line in how he approaches the build-up to the Steelers throwdown. If the Broncos head coach puts too much emphasis on dishing out penance to Wilson, he'll run the risk of overshadowing the importance of a crucial Conference contest early in the season. Wilson also had his friends and backers within the Broncos locker room — including veteran wide receiver Courtland Sutton, who was perhaps his closest ally. Even so, Sutton is well aware of the realities of the game, a profession where friends can be pitted against each other as opponents.
In the modern era of social media interaction and post-game shirt-signing frivolities, NFL superstars tend to keep things cordial within their exclusive fraternity. Payton has a notable history of stoking fires to gain motivational edges, dating all the way back to 2009 and his alleged rubber-stamping of 'Bountygate.'
