Vote Seahawks QB Russell Wilson for FedEx Air Player of Week 9

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson logged yet another impressive performance on Sunday, continuing his campaign for this year’s Most Valuable Player.

Against the Buccaneers, Wilson finished the day completing 29 of 43 passes attempted for 378 yards and five touchdowns. For his performance Week 9, Wilson has been nominated for the FedEx Air Player of the Week.

“With Russell back there, it don’t matter, you have a chance,” coach Pete Carroll said after the win. “You have a chance no matter what’s going on.  He played phenomenal football today. The calls that he had to make, the adjustments that he made, the throws, just the variety of things that we threw today that was available to us and that we went after, it was an array of passes and concepts and principles, and it was really, really exciting to see our guys pull all that together. ”
