Russell Wilson is one of the biggest draws in the NFL but his tenure at the Denver Broncos has been nothing but bad times.
Russell Wilson was defended strongly by Ryan Clark and Dan Orlovsky on Friday morning after being benched by the Denver Broncos.
ESPN analyst Ryan Clark unloaded on Sean Payton when he stated Broncos head coach Sean Payton had been behaving like a “thug” all year.
Clark went on to say that Payton’s behavior toward Wilson was “unacceptable” from the day Payton was traded for.
“Let’s be honest: Sean Payton has behaved as a thug since he became the coach of the Denver Broncos. Immediately when he gets in the building, he starts to undercut Russell Wilson personally and professionally from his first press conference on.”
“… I don’t believe there was a thing Russell Wilson could do to make Sean Payton like him. I think from a personality standpoint it was a bad match. I think schematically it was a bad match. But my point is this, my point is this, let’s hold Sean Payton to some sort of professional accountability. His behavior as the head coach of the Denver Broncos is unacceptable. If I’m the Walton family, I do not want somebody representing me this way.”

Kareem Jackson responded to a post about Clark’s rant via Instagram by commenting “Da truth RC.”
Randy Gregory then replied “all facts” to Jackson’s comment.
Jackson played under Payton this season before being released and landing with the Houston Texans. Gregory also played for Payton this year before being traded to the San Francisco 49ers in October.
Along with Wilson being benched, The Athletic’s Dianna Russini reported that the veteran is expecting to be cut by the franchise in March.
