Bobby Wagner says he wants to finish career with Seahawks but says he’ll be watching how team handles K.J. Wright

Seahawks middle linebacker Bobby Wagner reiterated a stance he has voiced often Wednesday, that in an ideal world he will finish his career in Seattle.

But Wagner also said he’ll be watching to see how the Seahawks handle things with his fellow veteran linebacker, K.J. Wright, who has just one year remaining on his contract with no signs of an extension imminent.

Wagner has two years remaining on a four-year, $43 million deal he signed in the summer of 2015, and a year from now will also be entering the final year of his deal, a time when given his status as one of the team’s most important players, he will likely be hoping for an extension — or likely, hoping it would be done even sooner than training camp.
