“Good Morning Soccer” host Kyle Brandt took a jab at Russell Wilson’s spouse Ciara throughout his roast of the Broncos quarterback after an unsightly 12-9 loss to the Colts in extra time on “Thursday Evening Soccer.”
On the Friday episode of the NFL Community present, Brandt voiced an explosive rant about Wilson — and later questioned why Wilson and Ciara “suppose [they’re] that cool and well-known” at pink carpet occasions.
“I feel Russell Wilson is without doubt one of the least genuine personalities we've got on this league,” Brandt mentioned. “I feel Russell Wilson is a poser. I don’t suppose that makes him a nasty particular person, I feel he’s a great particular person. I feel he tries to be one thing that he’s not.
“If you make the $245 million, you’ve both gotta be a terrific man with the locker room who loves you, otherwise you’ve gotta be an incredible participant,” Brandt continued, earlier than naming different high quarterbacks that he mentioned can pull it off. “[Tom] Brady, who makes half of what Russell is making, is each. [Aaron] Rodgers, MVP. Patrick Mahomes, each. [Josh] Allen, folks love him, he’s wonderful. Kyler [Murray], we’ll discover out.”
Brandt added the Broncos fan base has “no historical past or allegiance” relating to Wilson.
The analyst then took goal at Wilson and Ciara’s obvious impolite demeanor on the pink carpet on the NFL Honors in February.
“I labored the NFL Honors, I labored the pink carpet. [Travis] Kelce comes by, Rodgers comes by, Russell Wilson exhibits up together with his sun shades and his spouse, and I feel they suppose they’re Jay-Z and Beyonce and they're going to actually put their hand up and say ‘No, we’re not speaking,’” Brandt recalled.
“Why? Since you suppose you’re that cool and also you’re that well-known and also you’re that tremendous and every little thing is so good. That doesn't work within the locker room except you’re actually good or a very, actually good man. It simply doesn’t work.”
Brandt started his rant by calling out Wilson’s decision-making on the ultimate play of the sport. With the sport on the road, Wilson missed a wide-open KJ Hamler, and as a substitute, focused wideout Courtland Sutton on a cross that fell incomplete.
Hamler was livid after the Broncos dropped to 2-3 with the extra time loss, and slammed his helmet on the bottom in anger.
“I may have walked in,” Hamler mentioned concerning the remaining play after the sport.
Wilson additionally threw two interceptions, and the Broncos’ offense went 0-for-4 within the pink zone. The quarterback advised reporters after the sport that he’s “received to play higher.”
Previous to becoming a member of the Broncos, Wilson’s popularity across the league has been largely constructive, although he was known as a “f–kin sq.” by “The Pivot” podcast’s Channing Crowder in Might.
The nine-time Professional Bowler made the playoffs eight instances in 10 seasons with the Seahawks, together with back-to-back Tremendous Bowl appearances in 2013 and 2014.
After Seattle traded the quarterback to Denver in a March blockbuster — he signed a five-year $245 million extension with the Broncos — Wilson has struggled to get the offense going.
The Broncos now have 11 days till their subsequent sport on the highway. Denver will face the Chargers on “Monday Evening Soccer” in Week 6.
