Seahawks' Russell Wilson Says He's a Better Baseball Player Than Tim Tebow

Seattle Seahawks quarterback has inarguably enjoyed a better NFL career than Tim Tebow, but Russ believes he is better than Tebow in another sport as well.

During an appearance on Barstool Sports' Pardon My Take podcast this week (h/t TMZ Sports), Wilson was asked who the better baseball player is between himself and Tebow, and responded: "I'ma go with me. I'ma go with me. I can turn a mean double-play, Tim."

The 32-year-old Wilson was selected twice in the MLB draft, first going in the 41st round to the Baltimore Orioles in 2007 and then in the fourth round to the Colorado Rockies in 2010.
