With the news on Russell Wilson’s contract situation trickling out in tweets (sub- and otherwise) and thinly veiled references to leaving town in radio interviews, it was notable last night that the Seahawks quarterback finally said a number.
As you might imagine, his agent wishes he’d have said a bigger one.
Shortly after Wilson floated the number $25 million in his meandering way, agent Mark Rodgers replied with his own take on the situation which has taken on a life of its own this offseason.
“I wish he had said $40 million,” Rodgers wrote on Twitter.
