What was supposed to be an inevitable and routine contract extension for Seahawks QB Russell Wilson has devolved into The Summer Of Seahawk Fans Discontent. Lots of hand-wringing over his stated desire to play baseball again, his less-than-fully-committal comments to Bryant Gumbel, and the continued reports of a wide gap between team and players on that new contract.
It begs the question: Should we be worried about Russell Wilson?
I don’t mean the oh-no-what-if-he-leaves-us-someday kind of worried. I mean……. is he changing as a person?
What makes Russell Wilson special is, well, his Russell Wilson-ness.
