There’s too much smoke about Russell Wilson’s frustration with Pete Carroll and the Seattle Seahawks to ignore the possibility any longer. The Athletic’s Michael-Shawn Dugar, Mike Sando and Jayson Jenks have reported on the growing rift between the two parties and it doesn’t sound like the issues will be rectified. Chief among them:
- Pete Carroll’s overarching philosophy
- A lack of influence
- Accountability for the head coach
- Poor pass protection
- A conservative offense that holds him back
- Lack of talent on defense
Earlier this week NFL Network’s Michael Silver reported that teams believe the bidding for Russell Wilson would begin at three first round picks.
