“Russ Already Ruined Him”: $245 Million QB Faces Fans’ Backlash as Viral Sean Payton Video Kicks Up a Storm

It looks like Sean Payton is not settling until he has pivoted the Denver Broncos into their glorious days. The HC is seemingly taking his job seriously. Payton is ready to turn all the stones to position the Broncos in a playoff-worthy zone. He also went the extra mile to make some considerations to lure an athlete out of retirement. The NFL fandom is also buzzing about it.

After an underwhelming season, the Denver Broncos hit the reset button and fired HC Nathaniel Hackett. Amidst speculations, the Walton-Penner Family owned franchise hired Sean Payton, who will make his return to the sidelines. The new coach is already making waves and is now making moves to bring in Rob Gronkowski.

Gronk to Denver?

Fox Sports: NFL shared a 29-second video featuring Sean Payton. The new Broncos HC addressed a group about Rob Gronkowski’s SB LVII attire, urging them to get him a navy blue suit with a matching orange tie. He then highlighted a Broncos t-shirt, but it had the letter ‘B’ slashed off and replaced with a ‘G.’ Payton said, “I’m working on changing our name to the Denver Groncos.”

Payton’s clip sparked a wildfire, and the fans began blasting Broncos QB1, Russell Wilson.

A user said that Wilson ruined Payton already.

Another user is in disbelief.

But this user saw it as an embarrassing one.

This user referred to a Tom Brady video to share Gronk’s feelings after getting to wear the #69 jersey.

This user remains in denial, but also found it funny.

This user just had Russell Wilson’s catchphrase.

Moreover, this user said Sports Twitter would explode if Payton got Gronk out of retirement.

But this user looks excited for the Groncos.

Many might wonder if Sean Payton actually kept an offer to Gronk.

Is Sean Payton genuinely contemplating bringing Rob Gronkowski to Denver?

The Broncos are finally correcting the odds, and Sean Payton is specifically eyeing Rob Gronkowski. Several might find the above video a legit scenario. But the Super Bowl LVII coverage would indicate that it is nothing less than a skit.

The studio team sent the camera toward Payton and Gronk in the tunnel during the Fox pre-show before Super Bowl LVII. The newly anointed head coach was offering a Broncos move. He mentioned via BroncosWire, “I got a job at the Broncos for ya,” Payton said. “No training camp. You’re eight touchdowns shy of 100 touchdowns. I think I can get you that.”

The Broncos becoming the ‘Groncos’ would be fun. But since it was a skit, it would just remain a fantasy tie-up.
