Seattle Seahawks star quarterback Russell Wilson has been in the headlines seemingly all year as rumors swirled around his future. Such rumors excited the NFL, as Wilson is regarded as one of the very best quarterbacks in the league. However, not everyone feels that way about the Seahawks signal-caller. This former Steelers player bluntly criticized Wilson on Monday.

Former Steelers star Ryan Clark didn't hold back with his criticism of Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson. Clark said that Wilson, who has won a Super Bowl and made it to the precipice of winning another, is not an all-time great QB.

The former Steelers safety also said that Wilson shouldn't be in the tier of quarterbacks that can almost single-handedly lead their teams to a Super Bowl. These are strong words from Clark.

Wilson had to deal with the criticism that he was “carried by the Seahawks defense” during the early portion of his career, but this is entirely a different kind of criticism.

It is fair to knock Wilson on the fact that he hasn't made it back to the Super Bowl since that heartbreaking loss to the New England Patriots back in 2014. However, it's hard to argue with Wilson's numbers- he's thrown less than 25- touchdown passes just twice in his career, and his record with the Seahawks- this past season was Wilson's first losing season in the NFL.

Former Steelers safety Ryan Clark is entitled to his own opinion, but his blunt criticism of Seahawks star Russell Wilson is certainly a bold take.
