Bobby Wagner Claims Seahawks Didn’t Tell Him He Was Being Released

Bobby Wagner’s release from the Seahawks on Tuesday closed the book on the All-Pro linebacker’s legendary run in Seattle.

The news, which was first reported by ESPN, came as a shock to those who thought Wagner, 31, would end his career as a Seahawk. Apparently, the 12s weren’t the only ones caught off guard by his release.

According to Wagner himself, the organization he called home for a decade did not inform him that he would not return for the 2022 season.

“Crazy part about all this. I played there for 10 years & I didn’t even hear it from them that I wasn’t coming back,” he tweeted Friday morning.
