Report: Wilson will report to Seahawks even without new deal
It appears Seattle Seahawks fans can breathe easy, at least for now.
Star quarterback Russell Wilson will attend the first day of Seattle's offseason program regardless if a long-term contract is in place, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports.
Wilson reportedly told the Seahawks that he wants a contract extension by April 15, but there have been no signs of progress between the two sides.
The news comes shortly after reports surfaced that the 30-year-old wants to play for another team, and his unspoken desire to move on has led him to take a harder stance during contract negotiations.
Wilson said recently that his next contract could make him the NFL's highest-paid player.
The quarterback has spent his entire career in Seattle, earning six Pro Bowl selections and leading the club to a championship in Super Bowl XLVIII.
