Russell Wilson believes that former teammate and All-Pro running back Marshawn Lynch deserves to make the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
In a conversation with former NFL wide receiver Brandon Marshall on the I Am Athlete podcast, Wilson mentioned Lynch's impressive tenure with the Seattle Seahawks as one of the main factors in his Hall of Fame case.
"To me, he should be a Hall of Fame football player, man," Wilson said (around the 19:00 mark). "What he meant to Seattle, what he meant to our team, what he meant to me, you know. I wouldn't be as great as I am without him, watching him and observing him and also vice versa, just how hard he worked.
