Fans of the Black and Gold were loving what they saw out of QB Russell Wilson’s athleticism in the first half of the Week 16 matchup between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens. Apparently, so did the seven-time Super Bowl winner turn Fox analyst, Tom Brady.
Viewers were in awe of one particular play during the first quarter, that saw Wilson roll out to the right in order to evade two Ravens defenders and complete a long 3rd and 8 to WR Ben Skowronek.

Brady could no longer contain his excitement after one more impressively athletic display from Wilson, that saw him call his own number as a rushing lane seemingly opened up for the Steelers quarterback.
“He looks spry.” Brady chuckled. “For a guy that isn’t as fresh as lettuce as he used to be, he looks really good today.”
Brady understands exactly what it takes to be a Super Bowl champion, and his words should inspire confidence behind Wilson’s signal calling and athleticism moving forward.
