No. I had 10 incredible years\u201d there, Wilson said. \u201c\u2026 And what I do know is that some of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, from Manning to Tom Brady, Drew Brees, have gone from one place to another, guys I\u2019ve always known and admired. So, in this moment, I\u2019m looking forward to the opportunity to continue to grow and learn.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wilson said he believes he\u2019s not even halfway through his NFL career because of his work ethic and focus on health and nutrition. He didn\u2019t miss a <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a> until last year, when a fractured right middle finger sidelined him for a month after he\u2019d started his first 165 games, including 16 in the playoffs.<\/p>\n<p>Wilson becomes the first QB to join the team he beat in the Super Bowl, having vanquished the Broncos 43-8 after the 2013 season. Now he wants to follow Manning and Brady in winning a Super Bowl with his second team.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTheir best years are 30- to 40-plus range,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cYou see Tom coming back, Drew as long as he played, you know. So, to me, I ain\u2019t even got started yet.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wilson isn\u2019t just playing in the shadow of great quarterbacks in a QB-crazed city, he\u2019s joining an AFC that\u2019s loaded with the likes of Joe Burrow, Lamar Jackson and Josh Allen. He\u2019s also now part of the division\u2019s Mount Rushmore of Quarterbacks in the AFC West that also features Patrick Mahomes, Justin Herbert and Derek Carr.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignleft\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>\u201cWell, first of all, why would you want it any other way?\u201d Wilson said. \u201cI want to compete at the highest level. So, I think first of all, we need to talk about John Elway, about Peyton Manning.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He recounted going to the Manning passing camp as a high schooler and meeting Manning in Denver on a visit before the Seahawks drafted him out of Wisconsin in 2012 \u2014 after he decided to quit baseball (he was once in the Colorado Rockies\u2019 minor league system) and focus on football.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, those kind of memories, it\u2019s an honor, it\u2019s a tradition, it\u2019s a place of excellence,\u201d Wilson said. \u201cAnd that\u2019s the standard that I have to bring every day. That\u2019s the only thing I know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>And as far as the AFC West goes, Wilson said, \u201cI want to play with the best. I don\u2019t fear anything.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wilson has two years left on his contract that will pay him $24 million in 2022, although the Broncos might give him a new megadeal before the season even begins, one that could double his annual salary.<\/p>\n<p>In Seattle, GM John Schneider said it had become apparent to the Seahawks it would be difficult to sign Wilson to an extension beyond his current contract that is set to expire after 2023.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know if those were the exact words,\u201d Schneider said, \u201cbut we were under the impression that there wouldn\u2019t be a long-term extension.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said he never wanted to lose Wilson but \u201cwe\u2019re surprised at how good a deal came to us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>That deal includes first- and second-round picks this year and next along with QB Drew Lock, DE Shelby Harris and TE Noah Fant.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt wasn\u2019t about (a soured) relationship. It was about opportunity,\u201d Carroll said. \u201cHe\u2019s seen a lot of great players and great athletes do a lot of great things by making that move somewhere in their career, whether it was the quarterbacks that we know of, what happens in the NBA, baseball guys do it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think it intrigued him, and so it made it available after a long discussion, a lot of time together and all that, that we were eye to eye, OK, let\u2019s go down this road and see what happens.\u201d\n                        <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
