Seahawks sign QB Wilson to four-year, $140 million extension. MORE:
Russell Wilson , The Canadian Pressis sticking around with the Seattle Seahawks as the highest paid player in the NFL.
"Russell's goal and his hope was that he would continue his career with the Seahawks and continue to bring championships to this town," Rodgers said."He believes there is still unfinished business and he is looking forward to pursuing that without having to worry about contracts and his future." But the extension allows Seattle to budget for the future knowing how to work with Wilson's hefty paycheque in the years ahead and build a contender around the former third-round pick that has developed into a franchise QB.
The 5-foot-11 Wilson threw for a career-high 35 touchdowns and matched his career low with seven interceptions. He attempted only 427 passes — his lowest total since his second season when Seattle won the Super Bowl — but his efficiency was a career best with a 110.9 passer rating. He also ran only 67 times, a career low, as the improved run game and offensive line play allowed Wilson to stay in the pocket more and scramble for his life less.
