      @@josephmoore7926 Seattle traded him cause they wanted the cap space to invest in other positions. You need a truly special qb such as Brady or Mahomes to compete for championships and eat up a ton of the salary cap (I think Brady ever accepted a lower salary than he could have gotten so his team could continue to compete for championships). It isn’t that Russel wasn’t a great qb, it is just that Seattle didn’t think they could build the team they wanted without the financial flexibility.

      The amount of cringe you created with this comment is laughable...
      1. Blocks his number when calling teammates
      2. Seahawks players called him fake
      3. Got one of the highest contacts in history and played like a first year starter
      4. Goes and sits on the bench by himself after bad drives/turnovers instead of talking to his team and motivating them..
      5. Known throughout the league (ya know by actual players who are around him daily not some fanboy on youtube) for being a two-faced, fake, selfish person on and off the field...
      Yea, real class act and prime example of the type of player everyone should be. 🤡

    It's always intriguing to hear athletes share their personal experiences and challenges. Russell Wilson opening up about his benching by Sean Payton and the circumstances around it offers a rare glimpse into the resilience and mental strength required in professional sports. It's a testament to Wilson's character, being able to face adversity, learn, and potentially grow from it. Discussions like these can inspire us all to look at our own setbacks as opportunities for growth and self-improvement. Keep pushing forward, no matter what challenges come your way!

When Denver treats their players this way, it shows what kind of organization they really are and also the real reason they can't make the playoffs. He'll land somewhere and make an immediate positive impact. Not only is he still an elite QB, he's also a top notch man.

And I absolutely love the way Russel Wilson handled all of this drama around him. What Seahawks did to him at the end was all business, but what Denver Broncos did to him is really shitty and almost evil. Hats off to Russel Wilson for being the super star he is, he will always be in our hearts and minds for years to come.

I will say I watched every game Russ was in and it was disappointing. I couldn't tell you how many times the defense bailed him out and got them the W because it happened pretty much every week. Russ did play waaaay better than last season so I will give it to him but it's still not worth his price tag. I think he's going to ball out with the Steelers because he HAS to if he wants to keep his job after a year.

    Say what you want to about Russel Wilson, but this man has ALWAYS remained a professional and a gentleman. I'm from his "home team".
    I'm a Seattle Seahawk #12/Lady Hawk! I've watched Russel growing up in the NFL. He was that long shot that Coach Pete made and to EVERYONE'S SURPRISE... he took us to 2 Superbowls. I never hopped on board the "Let's Hate Russel" train. I'm an observer, I don't jump in at the first sign of drama.The Circus surrounding his leaving Seattle has not stopped, as this video proves. I think the Leaders of Denver Broncos have made such fools out of themselves.... but not Russel. He held his ground and held his head high, and remained calm, cool, and collected. That's just how he rolls. Success is the BEST revenge. Since when do we, the fans have to get so negative when a player changes teams? Change is the ONLY consistent thing in life...aside from death and taxes..😊What is done down in the dark will always come up to the light. We've heard Russel is going to the Steelers.Good for him. It doesn't matter whatever colors he's wearing or whose team he's playing for me. He will give his best and will always remain a consumit professional player in the NFL and he'll always be a favored player by me.

      Another perspective: I'm a woman who doesn't like sports, dont watch football. He appeals to me because he doesn't rattle off stats all the time. It does nothing for me to have these sports guys rattling off numbers one after the other. I don't watch football. I don't care what their RBI is. I'm here for the story.

      @@themothershyp7788 I respect that. It’s a man’s game by nature and financially. If he feels he can excel in this market that is full of ex football players like Ryan Clark and Shannon Sharpe by telling stories alone, then good luck. Also his stories are many times false like the recent Taylor Swift/ Kanye Story from the Superbowl. He has made a very bad name for himself based on a narcissistic attitude. This is the reasoning behind me stating he needs to add stats and facts to his commentary. He has lost credibility.

    I'm a Seahawks fan. I rooted for the broncos for 2 years. I'm rooting for the steelers now. I still love my hawks and always will. I owe russ my gratitude for giving us a superb owl! The legion of boom. I bet Russell steelers defense crossed his mind about the boom. GO HAWKS,,GO RUSS!!

    So they're afraid of him getting injured and having to pay him for nothing? Instead, they pay him to lead the Steelers into the playoffs? Huh???
    That's an interesting strategy Cotton. We'll have to see how it plays out. LOL

    Seattle and Pete Carroll were really taylor made for Russ. And the narrative was that he was being held back by the team so it made him look even better. If he could go back, take a bit less money but stay in seattle, ya gotta think he'd do it. On the flip side, after all that he was put through, people are ready to embrace Russ again, whereas a year ago he was the most clowned on player in all the major U.S sports.
