Former Teammate Richard Sherman Loves Russell Wilson Signing With Steelers

We’ve already heard from one of Russell Wilson’s former teammates. Now, another is weighing in. On the latest episode of his podcast, Richard Sherman offered his thoughts on his ex-Seattle Seahawks teammate playing in Pittsburgh. Sherman thinks it’s a great fit. And even better value.

“Great for the Pittsburgh Steelers,” Wilson told co-host Mitch Eisenstein on his Richard Sherman Podcast. “To be able to have a franchise quarterback making a million dollars gives you so much freedom everywhere else.”

Wilson will play for the veteran minimum this season of just over $1.2 million.
