WHAT? Russell Wilson Has A GoFundMe Account
Seahawks fans set up a GoFundMe to keep quarterback Russell Wilson in Seattle. Wilson is due for a new contract and fans decided to raise $5 million to pay Wilson as a sponsor and alleviate $5 million off the Seahawks salary cap so they can acquire more talent.
According to the campaign, they will only give Wilson the check if he re-signs with the Seahawks. If Wilson does not accept the check then the money will go to one of his favorite causes — The Seattle Children’s Hospital. Additionally, and not limited to, funds may be used to design and execute a token of appreciation to Russell Wilson for his current and/or future patricipation in the Seahawks organization.
Fans were urged to donate $12 each to represent the Seahawks signature “12th” fan moniker.
