Looks like Russell Wilson may be on his way out of Seattle. Russell has one year left on his contract as he’ll become a free agent in the offseason of 2020.
Rumors have suggested he wants to play in New York.
Unfortunately for Wilson and the Seahawks, it appears as though contract talks are not progressing.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter:
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson does not intend to sign a contract extension with the team this season if he does not reach an agreement by his self-imposed deadline of midnight Monday, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
It will be a challenge to get a new deal done by that deadline, though the sides are trying as talks continue, sources told Schefter.Wilson’s contract is up after this season. If a new contract is not agreed on, the Seahawks presumably will place their franchise tag on Wilson.Wilson is expected to participate in all of the Seahawks’ offseason activities and attend training camp.
It is believed that Wilson is seeking a contract similar to that of Aaron Rodgers, who is currently making $33.5 million a year in Green Bay.
