While Jeudy confirmed that Wilson has an office, he says it’s for a good reason.

“I will not continue to look at these false statements about my boii russ man, as a teammate who sees that the elite work ethic this man has is second to none,” Jeudy tweeted. “He got an office because he has dedicated his life to this game. I’ve never had a more motivated teammate than Russ.”

“3 does everything he can to do whatever it takes to win for the team. They’re not going to criticize him and act like he’s still not the same Russ who won a Super Bowl and was a nine-time professional bowler. I stand behind my quarterback,” Hamler tweeted.

The Broncos’ social media team retweeted both tweets.
