To say Wilson is more motivated or more focused on football is a little like saying Pete Carroll is more enthusiastic or Jamal Adams is more fired up about football—it doesn't seem possible—and yet those closest to Wilson have indeed seen him take things up a notch in the buildup to 2021. And one of the key elements of Wilson's excitement for the 2021 season has been the relationship he has built with new offensive coordinator Shane Waldron, the man brought in this offseason tasked with helping take Seattle's offense to new heights after that unit faltered a bit down the stretch last season.
"I think the relationship with what we are doing, and how tuned he is to that, generates another level of excitement from him and for what he's hoping to put out there through his work," Carroll said. "The potential that he can feel by the way we are interacting and communicating can lead us to some really cool stuff and really help our guys maximize what they can bring too. He's got a little special juice about him and that's probably what I am mentioning about the chemistry between he and the coordinator."
When Wilson was asked about Carroll's "special juice" comment, he agreed with his head coach.
"Yeah, I feel it and I'm ready to play," he said. "I know that every day you wake up you get to do something special. God has given me a gift and I want to use it all, and that's the coolest part about what I get to do. At the end of the day, I also know that I lay it on the line every day. I don't think anybody works harder daily mentally and physically on what I'm trying to do. You can set that standard for yourself and I get to choose that every day, it's a choice. Your lifestyle can't be random, it has to be planned out and thought through. The lifestyle has to be winning habits. I just want to bring that to the table every day and not just for me but for this organization, for all of the guys around me, for my family, and for everyone. At the end of the day, I want to put on a show every game, every practice, and every moment.
"I think we're ready and excited to play ball. We are going against a great team, obviously. I'm excited for the season and I'm zoned in."
As for the new offense, no one outside of the organization knows exactly what it will look like—and that's to the Seahawks' advantage to start the year—but from the comments we have heard from players and coaches, it figures to feature balance, a lot of tempo, and at least some elements of Rams system Waldron is coming from. But while there is still plenty of mystery, what's clear is that everyone, Wilson in particular, has been impressed with the team's new coordinator.
"I think he's a wizard, he really understands what he wants to get to," Wilson said. "I think he has a great opportunity to be special in coaching this game for a long time. I think that he's calm, he brings confidence to himself and to the guys… I'm excited to be working with him every day and all of the coaches really. It's going to be a great year."
We won't know until Sunday what Seattle's new offense will look like, and it will really take a full season to come to any real conclusions about it, but if Wilson's "special juice" and Waldron's wizardry can indeed work well together, then Wilson and his teammates might just end up being happier come February.
