Russell Wilson frustrated by 'getting hit too much,' wants more say in Seattle Seahawks' moves

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson said he's frustrated by amount of times he's been hit throughout his career and expressed his desire to be more involved with the team's personnel decisions.

"Like any player, you never want to get hit," Wilson told reporters via Zoom on Tuesday. "That's the reality of playing this position. Ask any quarterback who wants to play this game. But at the same time, it's part of the job and everything else. I think that the reality is I've definitely been hit. I've been sacked almost 400 times, so we've got to get better.
