Russell Wilson explains what caused botched exchange with Chris Carson

Officially, Seattle Seahawks running back Chris Carson only fumbled once against the Philadelphia Eagles, but he was culpable for two fumbles and once again was at the center of a turnover with the Seahawks trying to close a game out.

Literally a play after Carson actually fumbled (only for the Seahawks to recover the ball), the third-year running back never closed his arms on a Russell Wilson handoff and the ball hit the turf.

Luckily, even though Philadelphia recovered, they didn’t score any points. The fumble is charged to Wilson, which is the second time this has happened this year.
