Back to the Seattle Seahawks Newsfeed

Russell Wilson's new TV show starts soon. Pete Carroll and Jon Gruden offer their thoughts | The News Tribune

Russell Wilson's newest endeavor launches April 17 on ESPN.

The Seahawks quarterback is replacing Jon Gruden in a series of programs about evaluating and mentoring quarterbacks before the NFL Draft. Gruden gave up the role when he left ESPN to coach the Oakland Raiders.

In advance of the April 26-28 NFL Draft, Wilson will work with quarterback prospects and former Penn State running back Saquon Barkley on 30-minute specials called “QB2QB.” Ohio State’s J.T. Barrett, Heisman Trophy winner Baker Mayfield of Oklahoma and Oklahoma State quarterback Mason Rudolph are scheduled to appear on the show.
