Russell Wilson Responds at Ex-Mentor Sean Payton Over Quarterback Comments
NY Giants signal-caller Russell Wilson didn't mince words on social media this Tuesday, reacting to latest criticism from his former coach Sean Payton.
"Classless... but not shocked...," Wilson stated on X. "Didn't realize you're still bounty hunting 15+ years later through the press."
Wilson's remarks directly referenced the infamous bounty scandal issue from 2009-11, when Payton led the New Orleans Saints.
At that time, the league found that the Saints had rewarded players for making aggressive tackles on rival teams. As a result, Payton received a suspension from the NFL for a full year.
The Cause of the Latest Exchange
The quarterback's response came after Payton made remarks following Denver's historic comeback win over the New York. The coach remarked that the team had "discovered new energy" with Jaxson Dart, who has replaced Wilson as the first-string QB.
Moreover, Payton hinted that he had informed Giants owner John Mara that he would rather facing Wilson over Dart.
"I was talking to John Mara not too long ago and I said, 'We were hoping that the switch would've happened well after our game,'" Payton commented.
Context of the Wilson-Payton Partnership
- The quarterback joined the Denver from Seattle in 2022 and signed a 5-year, $245 million contract.
- The Broncos finished 4 wins and 11 losses in his first season before Denver brought in Payton, who was coming back to the sidelines after a period in TV commentary.
- Payton replaced Wilson 15 games into the 2023 season, a decision that ensured the player from getting injured.
Had Wilson stayed on the team by March 2024, his $37M salary for 2025 would have been locked in. Ultimately, Wilson was let go, ending the contentious breakup between the player and his coach.
