The star quarterback’s significant demand ended with his trade to Denver.
The Seahawks traded star quarterback Russell Wilson to the Broncos in March 2022, in one of the most significant moves of last year’s NFL offseason. According to The Athletic, Wilson attempted to have the franchise fire both coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Schneider a month earlier.
According to the report, the relationship between the quarterback and his former coach deteriorated to the point that they did not speak before the 2022 Week 1 game between the Seahawks and Wilson’s Broncos.

After spending six seasons in the NFL as a regular backup quarterback for four different franchises, AJ McCarron stepped away from the field during the 2022 season. After recovering from a torn ACL he suffered in April 2021, the former Alabama star has gotten back to playing in 2023, but for the St. Lous Battlehwawks of the XFL.
McCarron could likely be on an NFL roster or at the very least a team’s practice squad, but neither of those opportunities would give him an opportunity to play meaningful snaps in front of his three young sons.
LaMelo Ball wastes little time distancing himself from the Charlotte Hornets post-game. Red lights be damned.
Ball’s Hornets are the NBA’s fourth-worst team. They have just 17 wins on the season. That’s nearly as many wins as red lights Ball’s shot through following Charlotte home games.
Twitter user @IcyVert compiled a video of Ball hastily leaving numerous Hornets games this season – we’ll assume they were loses – and instantly breaking traffic laws.
Ball appears about as eager to stop at red lights as the Hornets are to play defense.
As pitchers work with a timer to prepare for the newly-introduced rule, the league’s batters will have to learn to deal with the change on the fly.
There’s no escaping the clocks. In every spring training complex, on every main field and backfield, teams are keeping time.
This is how MLB is preparing for its new pitch clock. In these early spring bullpen sessions and rounds of live batting practice, pitchers have been working with the timer, knowing they will have to do so for real when spring training games start on Friday.
NBA referees blowing their whistle for a travel or a double dribble is an incredibly rare occasion. If they did so more regularly it would slow the game to a crawl given the fact that players walk with the basketball on practically every other possession, but the no-call on Klay Thompson on Thursday night was egregious.
With the Golden State Warriors trailing the Lakers by nine points in the third quarter on Thursday night, Thompson caught an outlet pass at midcourt. After very clearly taking a dribble, he then went into a pump fake before taking the ball to the floor again.
The first Black quarterback to win a Super Bowl helped launch the HBCU Legacy Bowl. He spoke with SI on the event, the state of HBCU football and more.
When Doug Williams and James “Shack” Harris made the leap to the NFL ranks, they did not have the opportunity to participate in an all HBCU-only event to showcase their skills in front of NFL executives, scouts and decision makers.
The Dodgers are favorites to win the NL crown, but three teams are right on their heels.
The Los Angeles Dodgers are the favorites to win the 2023 NL Pennant at SI Sportsbook.
After winning the National League pennant three of the last six seasons, the Dodgers once again look poised to take home the honors in 2023. Despite losing shortstop Trea Turner to the Philadelphia Phillies, the lineup remains dangerous with Mookie Betts, Freddie Freeman and a healthy Max Muncy.
For someone who said he is not a crime investigator in an interview with ESPN Wednesday, Alabama athletic director Greg Byrne sure has spent quite a bit of time investigating freshman star basketball player Brandon Miller’s role – or lack thereof – in the murder on the Alabama strip on Jan. 15.
Miller has not been charged as an accessory in the crime or with anything. Even though he did bring the murder weapon to the murder scene on that date, according to bombshell police testimony on Tuesday in a preliminary hearing in Tuscaloosa.
The Phillies check in at No. 21 in our comprehensive ranking of each MLB franchise’s 26-and-under talent. Here’s why.

Rookie Logan Sargeant posted the second-best lap time of the morning session
It is important to remember that lap times during Formula 1 pre-season testing are to be taken with a massive grain of salt. Teams are running different programs, trying different things with the car, using different fuel loads and tyre compounds, and the lack of uniformity makes comparing lap times an inexact science.
But with pre-season testing in Bahrain now halfway complete, there should be some smiles around the Williams Racing garage.
