You may as well have seen the last of Russell Wilson in orange against the Patriots. The Broncos lost the thriller 26-23 despite Russell Wilson’s two-TD performance. Head coach Sean Payton’s outburst against Wilson two games ago grabbed eyeballs. Payton’s latest decision may as well end the Russell Wilson era despite the quarterback coach supporting the veteran.

The Broncos have now suffered eight losses but still are in the hunt for the playoffs. Wilson gave one of the perfect starts to the Broncos against the Patriots. The Broncos were sloppy in the third quarter, and the Patriots secured 20 points. Later, Russell Wilson staged a perfect resurgence and leveled the score, but the effort was undone as the Patriots secured a long field goal. The heartbreaker has made Payton take a hard decision.

Was Sean Payton benching Russell Wilson justified?

Sean Payton’s disagreement on Wilson’s status is now in the open. Payton has made it public that backup QB Jarret Stidham will start for the Broncos in their last two games. This will be the most significant embarrassment of Wilson’s career, and the decision will make the free agents keep their distance from the Broncos now. Craig Carton gave his insights on the concerns in the latest edition of the “Carton Show.”

MLFootball shared the update on X, “Damn…. Free agents will not want to come to the Broncos because the way Sean Payton has humiliated (Russell Wilson), says Craig Carton.” Carton further highlighted, “Payton disliked Russell Wilson on a level I’ve never seen before.” He pointed toward Payton’s outburst against Wilson in the Charger’s game. He gave his insights on benching him for the last two games, “Not only is he embarrassing him by benching him for the last two games, he’s making him dress. For Sean Payton to humiliate him in this manner is wrong.” What the future for Wilson will be is anybody’s guess.
