Jerhawk":dp2zu2uv said:Russ could've came out months ago and said this. He had ample opportunity to say his words were taken out of context or he regrets them, etc. Some form of backpedal.
Instead he stayed quiet for months, allowed his agent to release The List, and let the story fester like a wound.
Russell coming out and saying this now is weak and predictable. It doesn't put a nail in the coffin. It's simply a bandaid to make himself look better in the public spotlight because he cares more about his image than the team at this stage in his career.

That is one opinion, and nothing but your opinion.

Teams are a business and are ruthless and often work in their own interests rather than the player, if Russ used the media’s thirst for hot takes to gain leverage then good for him. Every single one of you if given the divine gift of the 1% athlete would do the same. In my opinion Russ has given the Seahawks 100% and his career backs that up.

I do know from what I've seen from OTA's, is that Russ looks to be in better shape than in the last few years!
Maybe he has his 'brand' on track, and all the other 'outside of football' stuff squared away.
Maybe he'll be more focused on football this season!
Here's hoping so!
