Ayo when did Russel Wilson lean heavily into the "I'm Russ and people think I'm corny but actually I'm cool and dangerous wink wink" shyt? It's arguably the worst public personality reboot I've seen in ages and it makes everything he does - the losing, the speeches, etc - look worse. Subway sometimes has bad athlete commercials but his has to be the WOAT.
I'm not sure when this started but I wanna say it was with Ciara and the Future stuff. Once the perception of him being "lame" arose on the internet it's like he personally responded by changing his persona. Before that he was just a regular dude who didn't have swag but you didn't even notice him much. He mentioned his faith during the NFL draft but I never really noticed him going full blown Jesus freak either until Ciara. Even Tim Tebow didn't act like this. Tebow was on a team full of killers (literally) in college and commanded respect. Came to the NFL and had a decent amount of early success, kept it all business, wasn't trying to make people think he was Mr goodie two shoes. Took accountability for being ass. Russ acts like everything is fine, god's plan and will get better regardless of effort. You can see that team is about to fracture over his shyt.
