There was a point this offseason where I felt the Russell Wilson trade chatter could end by way of a surprising trade. Especially with all of the early offseason quarterback movement.
But when that didn’t happen, I was under the assumption a statement was forthcoming from (1) Seahawks Head Coach Pete Carroll, (2) GM John Schneider, or (3) Wilson, himself. None of those things came about. Instead, the one slamming the door on this journey is a defensive lineman Seattle cut at the beginning of March, only to re-sign later that month.
No, seriously:
Dunlap clarified this was before he re-signed. Talked to Wilson and Wilson assured him he would be with Seahawks in 2021 and closed with a "Go Hawks.''
