Russell Wilson’s game relied far more on athleticism than we actually thought. People were talking about how he we gonna be a great MVP level player in his late 30’s and even early 40’s like Tom Brady or Peyton Manning Or Aaron Rodgers.

He’s no longer a difference maker(and hasn’t been in years) and is basically a 2019 Teddy Bridgewater style game manager at this point.
Russell did not have a bad season. Coach around his skill set like Pete Carroll did. Im thinking sean payton wants the plays he designs to run exactly the way he drew them up. He was never the coach for a declining Russ

Yeah just like 2019 Teddy Bridgewater didn’t have a bad season. Both game mangers at this point just one is getting paid like a game changer

What exactly is his “skill set” at this point and who is the coach for a declining Russ?

Russ wasn't done dirty at all.

Denver traded multiple picks for him and gave him one of the richest contracts in NFL history

His first season after demanding his own office and coining that cringy Broncos Country, Let's Ride nonsense, he puts an up a horrible and embarrassing season. Head coach gets fired and Denver cleans house.

His second season was an improvement but the new head coach came to the conclusion that Russ wasn't a fit in his system. Rather than continue to hammer a square peg in a round hole, Denver decides to move and bench him so they don't have to pay his injury guarantee. Denver is hit with a massive cap hit.

Russ walks away with 40 million dollars and gets to pick his next team.

The fact they couldn't trade him may say teams don't see his value. Does he still have it? Does he have it in him to be a bench player?

Payton had a hard enough time with a declining MAGA Brees, with a top 5 O-Line, and surrounded by weapons like prime Mike Thomas and Kamara.

We won the trade :blessed:



Russ said his willing to sign for a prove it deal this season. His not hurting for money and he will play lights out. Steelers or Raiders should jump on this

Russ is past his prime, lacks speed and awareness and struggles to read the field.

I'm sure some teams will kick the tires on him, but he's no longer the missing piece to a contending team.
