While Wilson’s return will be primary focus of the night, it will also be Nathaniel Hackett’s debut as a head coach in the NFL. Seattle was ready to begin a rebuild where the quarterback wasn’t the center of the offense, but rather a piece that makes it function. But I’m going to leave it up to the 12s. For Smith, it’s his first chance at being the starting quarterback to begin the season since 2014 with the New York Jets. The moment Wilson was traded to Denver in March, ending his decade as the leader under center in Seattle, this game was circled. I’m leaving it up to the 12s,” Seattle coach Pete Carroll.

Russell Wilson trade details: Breaking down the players involved in ... (Sporting News)

Before the 2022 NFL offseason began in earnest, there were many questions about whether there would actually be a lot of movement on the quarterback market.

The Broncos received a fourth-round pick in addition to Wilson and they spent it on an upgrade for their defensive line. The Seahawks acquiring the 31-year-old Harris was a bit of a head-scratcher, but there's no denying that he has talent. Ultimately, the Seahawks agreed to trade Wilson to the Broncos in exchange for a haul of players and picks. It's worth noting that Cross committed a whopping five penalties in just 122 preseason snaps with the Seahawks, so he could struggle out of the gate. He was a first-round pick during the 2019 NFL Draft and averaged 61 catches for 689 yards and four touchdowns per 17 games played in Denver. Because the Wilson trade occurred before the 2022 NFL Draft, a bulk of the picks exchanged between the two teams were from that year's class. Wilson wasn't the only quarterback involved in this exchange. The Russell Wilson trade was a large one, as it involved four active NFL players and six draft picks. Obviously, Wilson was the headliner in this deal. That said, the Seahawks received plenty of draft capital in exchange for their long-time signal caller. Which players were involved in the Russell Wilson trade? Wilson spent the first decade of his career as a starting quarterback for the Seahawks.

Aside from the Seahawks’ pot shots at essentially saying Wilson wouldn’t be the same or as “mobile” anymore, there was frustration oozing from the star quarterback all over. If someone told me the nine-time Pro Bowler was the face of a truly golden era in Seahawks football over the last decade, I’d find it hard to argue with.

Just six months ago, the Seattle Seahawks traded Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos in the megadeal of the offseason. Now, the two teams meet at 8:15 p.m. ...

Wilson’s arrival in Denver should solve what has been a consistent black hole for the team since Peyton Manning’s retirement and automatically make them contenders in what will be a wildly tight AFC West race. It’s also the first ESPN broadcast for Joe Buck and Troy Aikman in the Monday Night Football booth. This 2022 Week 1 edition of Pick Six column leads with what I find fascinating about the Wilson-Carroll dynamic heading into the Monday night matchup between Wilson’s Broncos and Carroll’s Seahawks. One must understand the history of Carroll, Wilson and the Super Bowl-era Seahawks to appreciate dynamics that have been shifting all offseason and now frame Wilson’s return to Seattle in a Broncos uniform. We need time to see how Wilson fares with Denver, and how Seattle builds its roster. Carroll laughed Thursday when asked what it will be like to see Wilson, Seattle’s only Super Bowl-winning quarterback, in a Denver uniform Monday. “Because it’s the first game of the season,” receiver DK Metcalf said, downplaying the significance of Denver employing Seattle’s former quarterback. He’s 7-6 against the spread on Monday night. Denver’s coaches have indicated they will funnel this offense through Wilson, so those figures could increase starting as early as tonight against a Seattle secondary that grades out as one of the worst secondaries in the league per my coverage matchup grades. Denver’s coaches may very well want Williams to be a lead back, but let’s not forget that Williams and Gordon each had 203 carries last year. The odds are quite strong that Metcalf will not recoup the WR2 value many fantasy managers invested in him. To give Metcalf the benefit of the doubt, let’s assume that Smith will be able to help Metcalf replicate his 7.0 short pass PPG pace that ranked 29th among wide receivers last season.

He totaled 60 yards and 12 carries (5.0 YPC), but he did have an extremely rare fumble.

It began with a series in which Smith completed his first four passes and capped the drive by evading the rush to toss a 38-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open [Will Dissly](https://www.nfl.com/players/will-dissly/).

He added a 25-yard strike to Colby Parkinson in the second quarter that gave Seattle a 17-7 lead at the time. Smith threw a 38-yard touchdown to Will Dissly on Seattle's first possession of the season.

Rapid Reactions To The Seahawks' Thrilling Season-Opening Win ... (Seahawks.com)

And in their season debut against the Denver Broncos, the Seahawks used a huge first half from Geno Smith and some great second-half defense to hang on for a ...

Wright raising the 12 Flag, several high-profile Seahawks Legends were in the house to support their former team and former teammate. The fans had the press box shaking at one point after Nwosu's forced fumble in the third quarter, and also contributed to three false starts and a pair of delay of game penalties. After the Broncos got the ball back with a short field following a DK Metcalf fumble, they again were knocking on the door, and this time handed it off to Javonte Williams on third-and-goal at the 1. Nwosu recorded seven tackles, a pass defense, and most notably, a forced fumble at the goal line to prevent a potential touchdown and give the Seahawks a turnover. With Denver driving for a potential go-ahead score early in the third quarter, the Broncos elected to go for it on fourth-and-goal from the 1-yard line, and after Melvin Gordon III was met by a wall of Seahawks defenders, safety Quandre Diggs was able to punch the ball loose, with Michael Jackson recovering and returning the ball to the 10-yard line. That attempt missed, allowing the Seahawks to start the season 1-0 in wild fashion.

That's obviously something that we are going to look back on and get better for it." We had to eliminate the big plays and just contain him." (On how it felt to move the ball down the field in the first half) "It is really like no surprise. (On the play Al Woods made on the forced fumble) "Big Al (Woods), I've got to take care of him when we get back to the facility tomorrow. With the guys we have in that defensive line room, and our linebackers blitzing, we have some special guys that can get after the quarterback, and that's what we displayed tonight." Certain centers they have certain motions that they do, and this center was always leaning and doing different things, and I was able to get a jump on that." We always want to be able to run the ball on the goal line to stop them on the goal line. (On the intensity of the game and on the win) "Definitely the loudest game I've been a part of where I've actually played. I'm not going to tell you all the plays, but he was in the read. I feel like all those things helped out towards the end of the game as well with the momentum and the crowd. We won the game again and then we won the game again and then we won the game again.

Jamal Adams Suffers Serious Knee Injury In Seahawks Win Over ... (Seahawks.com)

Seahawks safety Jamal Adams left Monday night's win with what Pete Carroll described as a serious knee injury.

We kind of had the same offseason where it was just rehab and trying to get back to be the leaders of this team and the leaders of this defense. It sucks the way it happened, and it sucks for him personally, because I know how much work he put in this past offseason and I know mentally he was in great space. "Not a typical knee injury.

Geno Smith threw two first-half touchdown passes, Denver fumbled twice at the one-yard line in the second half, and the Seahawks beat the Broncos 17-16 on ...

Seattle safety Jamal Adams suffered what Carroll said after the game was a serious injury to his left quadriceps tendon. Some signs in the stadium compared Wilson to Alex Rodriguez, who infamously left for a massive contract in Texas early in his baseball career. Wilson was greeted with lustful, guttural boos every time he stepped on the field from a crowd notorious for making noise. "Tonight was special, just on the other side than I'm used to. Smith and the Seahawks did very little offensively in the second half but their first half was good enough. Wilson went from being a disputed third-round pick to a franchise cornerstone that helped Seattle to its only Super Bowl title. "I wish we would have gotten a lot closer, but it put us in that weird spot there because we were in field-goal range, but we were on that fourth-down situation," Hackett said. Denver faced fourth-and-five at the Seattle 46 after Wilson hit Javonte Williams for a nine-yard gain. We can pass the ball. @GenoSmith3

[Josh Jones](https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/3051716/josh-jones) replaced him for the rest of the game. [Russell Wilson](https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/14881/russell-wilson) early in the second quarter, delivering pressure and a hit that helped force a third-down incompletion. Seattle also has [Ryan Neal](https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/3121344/ryan-neal) as a safety option. They signed him to a four-year, $70 million extension last summer that made him the NFL's highest-paid safety. Adams and the Seahawks were hoping that Seattle's new defense -- with its emphasis on split-safety looks -- would put him in position for a bounce-back season. "I'm back in my element, man," he said.
