Russell Wilson has a fondness for keeping himself durable and healthy to compete. The Denver Broncos’ quarterback seems to have Tom Brady‘s approach to football. His fitness and durability have been on display as the QB1 for the Seahawks and Broncos franchises over the years. However, an athlete from his former franchise does not seem enthusiastic about his physique.

The Asterisk had a glorious time with the Seattle Seahawks. Despite winning a Super Bowl, the QB1 and the franchise began having some turbulent times, which opened the way to the Denver Broncos trade. The feelings were on display during the 2 Up 2 Down Podcast when Tariq Woolen appeared as a guest.

Tariq Woolen made some DangeRuss damage

The Seattle Seahawks cornerback did not look content when he saw the physique of Russell Wilson. During his podcast appearance, Tariq Woolen said, “Seeing him in person it was pretty funny because on TV you see him It’s like, ‘OK he looks in shape on TV.’ But you see him in person, and it’s weird. He’s like a sack of potatoes… He’s athletic, and he’s a good player, but literally, when I seen him, I’m like ‘Damn, I didn’t know he was built like that.’”

CB Woolen roasted the Broncos’ QB1’s physique, which cost $1 Million to keep Wilson in shape. The Broncos quarterback did not have a fashionable start, dropping hopes of reaching the playoffs. The Seahawks also trashed Robot Russell’s return to Lumen Field in Week 1, which led to an unfruitful season with a 5-12 record.
