The NFL has featured a lot of offseason drama around quarterbacks in the last few seasons. Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has been at the center of that drama for the past 13 months and figures to be again for the remainder of this offseason or until a trade is made.
But if it were up to Wilson, no trade will ever be made.
While appearing on Mad Dog Sports Radio on Sirius XM, the Seahawks quarterback told host Chris Russo that his “goal is to be back” in Seattle.
“I’ve been fortunate to play 10 amazing years in Seattle, so my hope and goal is to be back there and keep winning there,” Wilson said. “That’s the vision. That’s the goal. It’s never really been anything different.”
Russell Wilson Answers Question on Future at Pro Bowl
The answer Wilson gave Russo coincides with what the quarterback told NFL Network’s Cameron Wolfe at Pro Bowl practice in early February.
Wolfe brought up the changing of the guard around the league at quarterback with Tom Brady and Ben Roethlisberger retiring. Then, much like Russo, Wolfe asked Wilson where he wants to play.
“Hopefully I get to play in one place for a long, long time like those guys did,” answered Wilson.
