After unceremoniously being released by the Seahawks after 10 seasons, Bobby Wagner returns as a Ram aiming to ruin his former team's playoff dreams.
But it would be surprising if Wagner is not embraced by fans that watched him become a six-time All-Pro and Super Bowl champion during his 10 seasons with the Seahawks.
Wagner repeatedly has said that he harbors no ill will toward Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, general manager John Schneider and team ownership. But Wagner clearly wants to show his former employer that they erred by letting him go. “When you’re playing your family member that knows your deepest, darkest secrets and knows exactly what to say to you to make you feel a certain type of way, and also you’re playing the organization that you feel gave up on you, so it was warranted to be honest,” he said. “And then again, I’m playing against people I know how to push their buttons too, so I know exactly what to say to them to make them mad and I did that.
Jones, 23, said he watches everything Wagner does. The second-year pro was not intimidated by Wagner’s arrival, and knew their pairing would be “a match made in heaven.” After suffering cardiac arrest, Damar Hamlin has shown remarkable improvement, even asking if his Bills had beaten the Bengals when he woke. That game has been canceled.
