Russell Wilson And Colin Kaepernick's Lives Couldn't Be More Different

You can tell a lot about players by how they spend their off time.

And in the case of two NFC West quarterbacks, Russell Wilson and Colin Kaepernick, their lifestyles could not be any more different.

During San Francisco's 17-3 loss to Green Bay on Sunday, Packers All-Pro linebacker Clay Matthews reiterated how unalike the two players are when he yelled to Kaepernick after a play, "You ain't Russell Wilson, bro."

True, he isn't -- but no one said he was. We're talking about two completely different individuals with two completely different mindsets yielding almost opposite results at this stage of their careers.

Playing in the same division, they see each other twice a year, so the comparisons aren't for no reason.

But it's off the field you can clearly see the biggest dissimilarity.

One of these men is Super Bowl champion, the other one isn't. One is dating Ciara, the other (as far as we know) is definitely not.

Taking a closer look at their Instagram accounts tells us everything.
