Your eyes are not deceiving you. You indeed see the 49ers listed as a possibility for Russell Wilson. It seems very unlikely that the Seattle Seahawks would trade Wilson, who signed a four-year, $140 million extension just two years ago. Even if Seattle did, the team would be unlikely to send him to a division rival. That hasn't stopped other teams from reaching out to the Seahawks. Reports indicate that
Wilson is not available, though.
"Yeah, I definitely believe they have gotten calls, for sure," Wilson recently told Dan Patrick. "I think anytime you are a player that tries to produce every week and has done it consistently, I think people are going to call for sure. It's part of the process."
Added Wilson: "The reality of professional sports is things happen, things change. I'm not sure how long I will play in Seattle. I think hopefully it will be forever. But things change, obviously, along the way."

Rapoport: 49ers send clear message to teams inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk
Ian Rapoport didn't offer much of an update on the ongoing contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and their standout wide receiver, Brandon Aiyuk. However, the NFL insider emphasized one thing: The team is not entertaining trade discussions at this juncture.
Reacting to Aiyuk's decision to unfollow the 49ers on Instagram, Rapoport couldn't help but chuckle at the latest development. This practice has become commonplace among players who are unhappy with their contract situations. Wide receiver Deebo Samuel similarly took this action in 2022 before requesting to be traded just before the draft.
