Russell Wilson Asked About Moving East to Play for the Commanders

The newly named Washington Commanders have made finding a quarterback a priority this off-season.  Will they find what they're looking for in the draft, or free agency or will it come in the form of a trade.

During an appearance on "Today," Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson was asked about a possible move east from Seattle to play for the Commanders.  He said he's happy where he is while admitting he has friends asking him all the time about making the move to Washington.

Russell Wilson asked by @craigmelvin about coming to Washington: “I’m from Richmond, I know what you mean, I got people hitting me up every day, all my friends and all that from the East Coast but Seattle’s the place I’m at right now and I love it.” Video from @TODAYshow pic.twitter.com/VmqQdXbHfI

Who knows what's going on behind the scenes.  He seems happy in Seattle, at least in public, but that doesn't mean there isn't a little fire with the smoke about him wanting out.
