It’s safe to say that last year did not exactly go as planned for Russell Wilson and he took a lot of criticism as a result. But one former star teammate is proud of the way he handled the rough year.
During a recent interview, Bradley Chubb called the difficult season from Russell Wilson a “fluke year” and praised the way he responded.
“He gets so much flak. It’s crazy, bro, because he do the absolute most that he can possibly do to make sure that he’s the best he possibly can be, you know what I mean?” Chubb said. “He doesn’t miss a step. When he has a fluke year like this, bro, you just have to chalk it up. Bro, you had a bad year. But it gets so glorified because of who he is, who he’s been, what he’s done. You have to look it as a nod to who you are as a person. ‘I’m on this pedestal, everybody wants to knock me down.’ That’s how it is with him. All the different allegations, he has to sit there and take it. It was dope to see how he just stayed the same person throughout it all. It was unfortunate that we just couldn’t reach the potential that we all thought we was going to be.”
We’ll have to see whether or not Wilson can bounce back this season.
