Russell Wilson, Jimmy Graham Create Magic for Touchdown (Video)
Remember when Russell Wilson was playing hurt and the Seattle Seahawks offense couldn’t buy a score? We’ve gladly forgotten about all that noise, too.
Fresh off of an uplifting victory over the New England Patriots, the Seattle Seahawks haven’t stopped flexing their offensive firepower. After dumping off Christine Michael this week, the Seahawks have received big games on the ground from the returning Thomas Rawls and the emerging C.J. Prosise, who scored a 72-yard touchdown run.
Prosise’s play against the Philadelphia Eagles was incredible, but this 35-yard touchdown pass from Russell Wilson to tight end Jimmy Graham was even better.
There is only one quarterback who pulls off this touchdown on a desperate third-and-11 heave and that is Wilson. It has been remarkable to watch Wilson and Graham go to work and this play illustrates the chemistry and trust both players have.
Wilson has no platform to throw it from, but he is still able to fire it off to Graham. That said, the former New Orleans Saints franchise icon had plenty of work to do of his own, but he found the end zone after somehow not getting tackled by Jaylen Watkins.

The Seahawks something-out-of-nothing touchdown from Wilson to Graham put them up 14-7 over the Eagles. Wilson completed 6-of-9 passes for 75 yards with a six-yard run and his injury-related struggles earlier in this season are well past him.
Any time Wilson is able to move around in the pocket, special things happen. All he has to do is toss it up to Graham and the rest is a big gain just waiting to happen.
