The Seattle Seahawks acquired tight end Greg Olsen this offseason, and during a virtual team meeting this week, head coach Pete Carroll said he wanted to give Olsen a chance to say hello and introduce himself to the squad.
They then cut to … Will Ferrell, who was posing as Olsen. Sort of. He was wearing the skullcap that Olsen sometimes wears, and had on a Seahawks jersey. Listen we’re all in quarantine, we can’t commit to the costumes like we might all like.
Ferrell chopped it up with the team, proclaiming his love for Russell Wilson, describing the new play he himself had designed — “90 go flywheel Kanye starburst” — and giving Seahawks tight end Luke Willson a bit of grief over his long hair.
“I don’t know what you do in the offseason up there in Canada,” Ferrell said to Willson, “but cut your goddamn hair and let’s play some football.”
