Seattle Seahawks: Has Russell Wilson already checked out?

Why Did Russ Return so quickly?
It’s a simple answer, Wilson is a tremendous competitor. Also, the Seattle Seahawks’ season still had a legit chance at the playoffs. The team was 3-5 when he returned. So, getting the team’s leader and best quarterback should have served as a springboard for the team. Instead, the team has been flat.
Also, here’s something to file away for later. Russ wasn’t happy with the Seattle Seahawks after last year. Might some of those thoughts from Russ be resurfacing? Let’s say they are. Might he want to return early from injury to limit some of the return that Seattle will receive from a trade? Sure, that’s a possibility, but why risk further injuring himself? Why not just continue to sit out and rehab?
What’s Next
Up next is Russell Wilson making my tiny mind come to light. As he feasts on a bad Washington Football Team secondary. Beyond that is the rest of the season and then the offseason. The Seattle Seahawks will have more draft picks this year than last year.
Listen, nobody thought Joe Montana would ever play for another team than San Francisco. Nobody thought this Seattle Seahawks season would go the way that it’s gone. Unfortunately, all good things come to an end. This will be the last season Russell Wilson calls Seattle home. Seattle currently has many holes to fill. Once the year’s over, they’ll have even more. The team projects to have a little over 12 million to spend on free agents.
It will be hard for the Seattle Seahawks organization to patch up all their many holes with Wilson on the books. They’ll have an easier time fixing the team with a Wilson trade. This is extremely unfortunate to say, but it’s also the world we live in.
Thanksgiving Ball with my guy! Thankful! #WilsonFamilyTradition
