With the Seattle Seahawks reportedly offering quarterback Russell Wilson a multi-year contract worth nearly $21 million per season, NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport reported that Wilson has yet to outright turn down an offer from the team.

Rumors have swirled around Wilson’s contract situation all offseason, and he is currently set to report to training camp on Thursday entering the final year of his rookie contract that would pay him $1.54 million.

The sides have been negotiating for several months, with reports that Wilson is seeking to become the highest paid player in the NFL. ProFootballTalk.com reported Saturday that the Seahawks have offered Wilson a deal that averages close to $21 million per season with significant guaranteed money.

The Green Bay Packers’ Aaron Rodgers is currently the highest-paid quarterback in the NFL at $22 million per season. If reports of the Seahawks’ offer are correct, Wilson would be behind only Rodgers and the Pittsburgh Steelers’ Ben Roethlisberger ($21.85 million) on yearly average should he agree to it.
