Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has quietly entered the NFL quarterback carousel at the epicenter of the 2021 offseason. With the expectation the New Orleans Saints will see their longtime franchise quarterback, Drew Brees, retire, they’re at a point of impasse at quarterback. Despite a myriad of elite quarterbacks that have actively sought suitors in a trade, New Orleans has thus far declined to entertain the market.
In the eleventh hour, Russell Wilson threw his hat into the ring. Apparently, this keenly piqued the Saints interest.
On Feb. 25, Wilson’s agent Mark Rodgers told ESPN that, while Wilson wants to remain in Seattle, he would only go to four destinations: Dallas Cowboys, Chicago Bears, Las Vegas Raiders, and New Orleans Saints.
