Greedy Russell Wilson wants to be paid like a top-40 quarterback

Wow. The nerve of this guy.

Apparently Russell Wilson thinks he is one of the top 40 quarterbacks in the NFL. At least, he expects to be paid like one.

Wilson, who is currently on a deal that pays him $1.696 million in 2015 (44th overall among quarterbacks) and has an average annual value of $749,000 (68th overall) thinks he should actually be paid more than a guy like Aaron Rodgers? Why? Because you've been to more Super Bowls than him?

Sorry, but football is a team sport and it doesn't work like that.
