The NFL played its first regular season game in Germany on Sunday when the Tampa Bay Buccaneers took on the Seattle Seahawks in Munich.
One creative Seahawks fan made a humorous modification to his Russell Wilson jersey. The fan covered the nameplate on the jersey and replaced it with "2-First-Round-Picks," alluding to the haul Seattle received from the Denver Broncos in the trade for Wilson back in March.

Seattle dealt Wilson to Denver in exchange for tight Noah Fant, defensive end Shelby Harris, quarterback Drew Lock, and five draft picks, including two first and second-round selections.
Unfortunately for the fan and his Seahawks, Seattle came up short to Tom Brady and the Bucs, falling 21-16. However, Wilson's for the Broncos on Sunday might make him feel better. Wilson finished 21-of-42 for 286 yards with a touchdown and an interception in a 17-10 loss to the Tennessee Titans.
Meanwhile, despite the Seahawks' loss, Wilson's replacement, Geno Smith, continued his strong play, finishing 23-of-33 for 275 yards and two touchdowns.
Comparing how the two quarterbacks have fared this season so far, one could make a strong argument in favor of Smith having the better season.
