Before the contract was secure, Russell explained to The Seattle Times how it took some time to complete the contract because he wanted to make sure it was the right move to finish his career on a strong note. “I told [my agent] what was most important was I just turned 30 years old,’’ Russell told the publication. “I think the next 10 years of my life, the next deal was going to be the place where ‘Hey, if we’re going to be in Seattle, wherever it’s going to be, I want to make sure that’s where I’m going to be for the next 10-12 years hopefully.’’’

He added: “It’s just because really from the beginning of my professional career, it started here and my goal was to end it here. To leave a lasting impression on this city. … I want to be a Seahawk for life. That was kind of my mentality.’
