Russell Wilson takes batting practice with Judge, Stanton on first day at Yankees spring training



Russell Wilson has made quite the name for himself as the Seattle Seahawks’ starting quarterback over the past six years.

The 29-year-old has thrown for 22,176 yards and 161 touchdowns to go along with 3,275 rushing yards and 16 rushing touchdowns in 96 career regular games, and he owns a career record of 65-30-1 to show for it. The Cincinnati, Ohio native is a Super Bowl champion and a four-time Pro Bowler, but he also happens to be a second baseman for the New York Yankees.



Wilson stayed true to his word from the video above and reported to Yankees spring training on Monday morning, where he got to suit up in the Yankees pinstripes and meet his new teammates for the very first time.



The 2012 NFL Rookie of the Year is only expected to spend one week with the team, so he went right to work on the first day and took part in batting practice with Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton.



Don’t expect to see Wilson in a game situation anytime soon, but we won’t be surprised if actually gets a shot considering he has some professional baseball experience under his belt.
