I had this urge to play the game of football, because so many people - I shouldn't say so many, a handful of people - said I couldn't do it.

I ended up getting drafted by the Colorado Rockies on June 8, 2010 and the next day, my dad passed away, in June 9, 2010. So I'm at the biggest high of my life on June 8th. And the next day, June 9th, he's gone. Russell Wilson 8th9thbig share on social

When we are at the worst times of our lives, when we are battling with something, or struggles, whatever it may be, when we are at our highest point as well, when things are going really well, we want somebody to comfort us and be there for us and to say, 'Well done.' That's Jesus! Russell Wilson badbattlecomfort share on social
