We knew quarterback Russell Wilson had been trying to recruit Bobby Wagner to the Denver Broncos, we just didn’t know how early that recruitment started.
In an interview with Rich Eisen on Wednesday, Wagner seemingly indicated that Wilson spoke to him about potentially going to the Broncos before the trade was even official.
“I knew about it,” Wagner said when Eisen asked him if he had a heads up on the Wilson trade. “The funny thing was, he actually called me a few days before, maybe even a week before [the trade] and asked me what was my thoughts about going there. I was like, ‘I don’t have any thoughts, my heart is in Seattle.'”
