Or it could be that the Russ camp said that to put pressure on the Hawks FO to get Brown taken care of, so he doesn't end up with a 6th round rookie protecting his blind side.
Which is the whole point. Russell did the same thing earlier in the offseason when he started pressuring management to improve the offensive line. If he has an opinion or suggestion, he needs to keep it behind closed doors and I'm sure that they'll at least take into consideration whatever it is that he has to say.
I don't blame Russell for his concerns and as a vet he should have a fair degree of say in the direction of the franchise, but there is no need for him to go public.
I think there are assumptions being made her
"Via Bob Condotta and Adam Jude of the Seattle Times, Wilson has told the Seahawks he is willing to restructure his contract to help facilitate new deals for Adams and Brown under the team’s salary cap."
Notice no quote. That leads me to beleive the info was not gotten form Wilson especailly when just below it you get this
“Not having Duane Brown out there is a pretty significant deal because I think he’s one of the best left tackles in the game, there’s no arguing it,” Wilson said. “I think he’s as good as it gets. There’s nobody more athletic, more talented than he is. Age is just a number. He looks like he’s 28-30 out there. He’s really exceptional. So smart and physical, understands the game, and I think people fear him, to be honest with you, when they’re rushing him and playing against him.
“So we definitely want to be able to get him back out there. We’ve got to figure that out because we need Duane Brown.”
Notice direct quotes

It appears there was no quote of Wilson saying it, but people assumed it was him when it was likely from someone else, on the hawks Other wise, they would quote Wilson.
Even more
Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is reportedly ready to restructure his contract to get Jamal Adams and Duane Brown their new deals.
https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.c...eal-to-aid-deals-for-jamal-adams-duane-brown/
reportedly notice no mention of were the info came from. so lets stop assuming all we know is the media say he will, but we don't even know if that is true let alone where it came form.
Maybe it came form browns camp or Adams to put pressure on the hawks.
adn then there is this right form PC

Coach Pete Carroll said Saturday his team has talked to its co-captains and highest-paid players about renegotiating their contracts to create salary-cap space this year. And Carroll kept open the possibility Seattle may re-do one of both of those deals, if the team gets into position to add more veteran players.
“As always, we have all of the options available to us,” Carroll said following the second of three rookie-minicamp practices with jet-skiers and power boats zipping by next to them on Lake Washington. “We have talked about all of that, as we do every year. What are our possibilities? Where do we need to go? What do we need to do, if we get to certain levels of need to stay in compliance (with the cap)?
so again lets stop assuming.
