The Carolina Panthers and Seattle Seahawks had discussions about quarterback Russell Wilson before he was dealt to the Denver Broncos, per Joseph Person of The Athletic.
"Meanwhile, the Panthers remain in the quarterback market for the third consecutive offseason under Matt Rhule. The Athletic has learned the Panthers had discussions with the Seahawks about Wilson, not surprising given general manager Scott Fitterer's extensive background in Seattle over two decades as a scout and assistant GM.
"But Wilson, the former NC State star, preferred to play for Denver, where he wouldn't haunt the Seahawks."
The Panthers are left searching for answers at quarterback once again after a Wilson trade didn't materialize.
