Russell Wilson 'Over-Trying' Amid Seahawks 0-2 Start, Pete Carroll Says

Quarterback Russell Wilson figures to be a rare bright spot in what is shaping up to be a disappointing 2018 campaign for the Seattle Seahawks, but head coach Pete Carroll said the signal-caller was "over-trying" in the team's first two losses.

He's pressing in difficult situations to try and see if he can come up with a way to make something happen instead of just getting rid of the football.
