DENVER — Russell Wilson figured he would play professionally in downtown Denver. He just thought it would be at Coors Field. The Broncos quarterback loved baseball growing up. It was a favorite sport.
Then his career took a U-turn. The Wolfpack turned their back on Wilson the football player, and Wilson found a home at Wisconsin as a graduate transfer. A Rose Bowl berth later that boosted his football stock, Wilson's baseball career faded after hitting .229 in 93 combined games at short-season Tri-City and Class-A Asheville.
