It’s not that Russell Wilson is returning to Seattle, but Week 1 includes former Washington guard Brandon Scherff returning to FedEx Field.
Scherff, a five-time Pro Bowler who spent seven years in Washington before finally reaching the open scoreboard, was asked by reporters Sunday if he’s excited to face his old team to start the season.
“Not really, not really,” Scherff said. “I had a great time and a great experience in Washington, and I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for all the coaches I played with there. For me, Week One is another game I have to prepare for and you know, we just have to show up and get ready to play because they’re a great team.”
Reasonable minds can differ on whether the commanders are a “demon team”. But the Jaguars have been a very bad team in recent years, so any team they face, until proven otherwise, should be considered a team.
