Longtime Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bobby Wagner has found a new home—and he didn’t even have to leave the division!
Wagner, 31, Thursday inked a five-year deal with the defending Super Bowl champion Los Angeles Rams worth $50 million and possibly up to $65 million with incentives.
“I want to start off by saying THANK YOU to Seattle for embracing this Cali kid, with a dream of playing in the NFL,” Wagner wrote on Instagram. “Though it didn’t end in a positive way; I want to be clear, my love for Seattle will never change. Seattle is truly a place I call home & the love I’ve felt throughout the city is a feeling I will always remember.
“I’m excited for this new chapter. I’m excited to be able to come back where it all started and join the LA Rams!
