Seattle Seahawks' Pete Carroll, John Schneider regret how Bobby Wagner learned of release

RENTON, Wash. -- Seattle Seahawks coach Pete Carroll and general manager John Schneider delivered a mea culpa for the way they handled Bobby Wagner's release, saying they regret how their long-time defensive captain learned of the team's plans to move on.

Wagner voiced his displeasure over the situation last Friday, writing on his Twitter account: "Crazy part about all this. I played there for 10 years & I didn't even hear it from them that I wasn't coming back."

Wagner's tweet came three days after ESPN's Adam Schefter broke the news that the Seahawks had informed him he was being released.
