Russell Wilson: Standing Tall

by Art Thiel, Steve Rudman, Sportspress Northwest, Mike Holmgren

Overview

Few took notice when the Seattle Seahawks selected Russell Wilson in the third round of the 2012 NFL Draft. Despite Wilson's accomplishments at the college level, few experts predicted success for the sub-6-foot signal caller. Two years later, Wilson and the Seahawks were Super Bowl champions. With Seattle's triumph in Super Bowl XLVIII, Wilson set the NFL record for most wins in a quarterback's first two seasons. In this commemorative edition, veteran Seattle sports writers Art Thiel and Steve Rudman trace the quarterback's ascent from North Carolina State to Wisconsin, with a detour into professional baseball, and through the Super Bowl XLVIII win. Featuring nearly 100 unique color photographs, Russell Wilson: Standing Tall captures the meteoric rise of one of the NFL's most surprising superstars.
