There has been a buzz — not a loud one, but a constant murmur — about Russell Wilson being unhappy in Seattle.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter poured some heat on to the fire Thursday by revealing the Seahawks’ quarterback has shared the list of teams he would consider playing for if traded. That said, the quarterback prefers to stay where he is.
The teams on the list are the Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, Las Vegas Raiders and Chicago Bears, the quarterback’s agent told ESPN.
