All of a sudden no quarterback seems secure this offseason and, apparently, it looks like you can add the Seahawks’ Russell Wilson to that mix.
The veteran QB appears to be growing frustrated with the number of hits he’s taken in recent years, with Wilson having been sacked 47 times in 2020, which was 3rd-most in the NFL. The only quarterbacks who were sacked more were Houston’s Deshaun Watson (49) and Philadelphia’s Carson Wentz (50).
But that’s not a new trend. Wilson was tied for first with Atlanta’s Matt Ryan and Arizona’s Kyler Murray with 48 sacks in 2019, he was tied for 3rd in sacks with 51 with Derek Carr in 2018, and was 4th in sacks with 43 in 2017.
