Gonzalez, Sherman Question Russell Wilson’s Hall of Fame Case on Prime Video

The critique followed the Giants benching Wilson for rookie Jaxson Dart after an 0-3 start.

Overview

  • On Thursday Night Football’s Prime Video coverage, Hall of Famer Tony Gonzalez said Wilson has "played himself out of a Hall of Fame."
  • Former Seahawks teammate Richard Sherman argued Wilson’s success waned without Seattle’s "legendary" defense, citing 4-11, 7-8 and 0-3 records in recent seasons.
  • Giants coach Brian Daboll named Jaxson Dart the starter after Wilson opened 0-3 with 778 passing yards, three touchdowns and three interceptions.
  • Since leaving Seattle, Wilson is 17-27 as a starter and has dropped his last eight starts stretching back to Pittsburgh’s 2024 finish.
  • After the demotion, Wilson said "I know I’m a winner" and emphasized he wants to stay, help the Giants and support Dart, drawing praise from Daboll for his professionalism.
