It has only been a week since the Minnesota Vikings’ 2021 season was pulled off life support, and people are already coming up with wild, dream-like scenarios to ensure the disappointment doesn’t linger in 2022. One of those scenarios would be pulling off a blockbuster trade with the Seattle Seahawks to replace quarterback Kirk Cousins with Russell Wilson.
The talk stems from the news on Sunday, via NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, that Wilson wanted to “explore his options” this offseason.
“Wilson has not demanded a trade, and it’s not clear if he will,” wrote Rapoport. “But at the least, those close to Wilson say he wants to investigate other destinations to see if those would put him in a better position to win another championship and create the legacy he sees for himself.”
