The Seattle Seahawks lost the Super Bowl in heartbreaking fashion to the New England Patriots, but they are also still battling some old off-the-field drama that has followed the team around for nearly a year at this point.

Golden Tate is now a member of the Detroit Lions, but he is still a bit sore over some of the issues that were hanging over his departure from the team. Rumor has it that Tate had an affair with Russell Wilson's life, and he is unhappy that the quarterback has not put a stop to those rumors.

According to TMZ, Tate - who has denied that he ever hooked up with Wilson's wife - called the rumors "a bunch of bulls**t." He also said that he is upset that Wilson has allowed the rumors to persist instead of squashing them, saying, "It's sad that he's letting it go on."

Shortly after the rumors emerged last year, Tate found himself out of a job at Seattle and on his way to Detroit, and Wilson and his wife announced that they were getting a divorce.

Tate was also asked if he thought Wilson had allowed the rumors to go on because he actually believed that they were true. "I don't know what he believes," said Tate.

Tate also says that he and Wilson still talk and are doing alright, and he also adds that he wishes the best for Wilson.
