Russell Wilson threw three TD passes in the first half on Sunday at Mile High.
Unfortunately for the veteran quarterback, only two went to a member of his own team.
Willie Gay tipped a pass to himself in the second quarter and the Chiefs’ linebacker returned it 47 yards for a touchdown that put Kansas City up 27-0.

Wilson did find someone on his team he was able to connect with for scores.
With 1:35 left in the second quarter, Jerry Jeudy caught an 18-yard scoring pass, and 86 seconds later, the pair combined for a 5-yard touchdown pass.
Jerry Jeudy for 6️⃣
