Russell Wilson knows what it’s like to win a Super Bowl for the Seattle Seahawks.
He’s long gone now, but the legendary Seahawks QB is hoping to see Seattle do it again.
Russ chimed in with a post on X only moments after Sunday’s NFC Championship Game concluded.
Wilson, who has played for the Broncos, Steelers and Giants since leaving Seattle, wants Sam Darnold to do the same thing he did while playing for the Seahawks.
“Sam Darnold’s comeback story over the past 2 years has been one of the most inspirational things to watch!” Wilson wrote. “Cool seeing him overcome!!! Congrats bro. Hope you win it! Go Hawks!”

Wilson also threw a trophy emoji in that post, for good measure.
It’s a cool gesture from Wilson, who will be a free agent when the new league year officially begins in March.
Wilson is on the minds of Seahawks fans. Throughout Sunday’s game, he was a popular search trend on Google.

It’s been a long time since Wilson took the NFL by storm as a mid-round pick who was believed to be too short to be a quality quarterback.
Now, he’s watching from afar as Darnold, one of the league’s coolest reclamation stories, has Seattle back in the big game.
Not a bad run for the Seahawks with a couple of QBs who once had lots and lots of doubters.
