Bobby Wagner says Seahawks didn’t inform him he was being released before news broke

It wasn’t a shock that the Seattle Seahawks launched future Corridor of Famer Bobby Wagner. Seattle saved over $16 million in wage cap area by parting methods with the long-lasting center linebacker, and there was at all times the distinct chance he wouldn’t be a part of the workforce’s 2022 plans.

However three days after it was first revealed by ESPN’s Adam Schefter that Seattle meant to launch Wagner, and two days after the workforce made it official, Wagner tweeted that the Seahawks didn’t even talk with him that he was going to be let go earlier than the story obtained out.

Leaks occur on a regular basis within the sports activities world because of insiders having shut contacts throughout the group. Athletes discovering out they’ve been traded or let undergo social media is more and more commonplace. That doesn’t make it proper, however that’s simply the truth of the enterprise.

All of this stings extra when you think about Wagner’s place amongst all-time nice Seahawks gamers. The way in which this was dealt with appears on the floor to be very disrespectful and something however stylish for such a cultured participant. Schefter’s leak presumably will need to have come throughout the entrance workplace as a result of it positive as hell couldn’t have leaked from Bobby’s non-existent agent. One of the best case situation out of that is simply unhealthy communication and never one thing extra merciless.

And thru all of this within the greater image, it’s arduous to disregard the constant sample of nice Seahawks gamers departing this group not essentially leaving within the cleanest of manners.
