Russell Wilson Returns Fire at Eli Manning Over Comment He Made During Manningcast

Russell Wilson fires back at Eli Manning.

During the Denver Broncos Sunday Night Football game, Eli Manning on ManningCast made a joke at Russell Wilson‘s expense by saying the team should have paid their punter $250 million instead of Russell.  It was a funny quip and a good burn considering the how Russell Wilson and the Broncos offense is struggling to start out the season. Although they currently are playing winning football, at least from a record perspective. The Broncos are currently 2-1.

However Russell Wilson didn’t just shoot back, he brought some stats with him.  Russell shot back with a roast of his own to Eli Manning this week.  When asked about Eli’s comments he said,

“You talking about Chad Powers? I’m 3-0 against Chad Powers.”

Watch Russell react to Eli’s comment below:

In case you are unaware of the Chad Powers reference, you missed one of the funniest undercover skits in a while as Eli Manning transformed himself into a Penn State college walk-on named Chad Powers. The entire  video is pretty funny,, so if you haven’t seen it you won’t regret taking a look here.

Russell is not the kind of guy who easily forgets about comments like the one Eli made. He’ll find a way to use it, he always plays best with a chip on his shoulder.

Russell 1, Chad Powers 0.
