Russell Wilson urges Chiefs to trade for $130 million Garrett Wilson after Patrick Mahomes’ frustrating loss to Seahawks

Russell Wilson believes the Kansas City Chiefs should make a move for New York Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson after their 20-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks on October 25. The former NFL quarterback pointed to the Chiefs’ problems with catching passes and said Garrett could give Patrick Mahomes the help he needs. Wilson also noted that Mahomes looked unusually frustrated during the game, adding to concerns about the team’s passing attack.Russell Wilson wants the Kansas City Chiefs to trade for Garrett Wilson after Patrick Mahomes’ strugglesSpeaking on CBS Sports’ Set Hut, Russell Wilson made it clear that he sees Kansas City as a strong landing spot for Garrett Wilson, who signed a four-year, $130 million contract extension with the Jets in July 2025. With the NFL trade deadline approaching on November 10, Russell believes the Chiefs should consider making a move for the 25-year-old receiver.“We’re talking about trades, advice for Garrett Wilson. Listen to me. I mentioned it last week; I’m gonna say it again: If I’m Garrett Wilson, where do I wanna go? I’m going to the Kansas City Chiefs.”Russell then explained why he believes the Chiefs need another receiver, especially one who can make plays downfield and give Mahomes more options when the offense struggles.“The Chiefs, I’m knocking on the door ’cause I need a deep threat, I need a playmaker. I need a receiver,” Wilson said.His suggestion came after Kansas City managed just three points against Seattle, with its offense unable to find the end zone throughout the game. The Chiefs finished with 213 total yards, while the Seahawks recorded 410, showing just how difficult the night was for Mahomes and his teammates.Patrick Mahomes’ frustration against the Seattle Seahawks strengthens Russell Wilson’s case for a Chiefs tradeRussell also pointed to Mahomes’ visible reaction during the loss as a sign of how badly Kansas City needs help in its passing game.The quarterback struggled to get the offense moving, completing 19 of 33 passes for 165 yards, with no touchdowns and one interception. The Chiefs also failed to reach the red zone during the game.“As you saw on Sunday Night Football, they were struggling at the Seahawks, everybody was dropping the ball, Patrick Mahomes was frustrated. You don’t see Patrick Mahomes getting frustrated too often. He was cussing at the camera. They need a big-time receiver, and Garrett Wilson is that guy.”Garrett could give Kansas City another reliable option in the passing game, but a trade is far from certain. The Jets have not announced plans to move him, and his long-term contract could make a deal difficult to complete.Russell also named the San Francisco 49ers as another team that should consider pursuing the receiver before the deadline.For now, Russell’s comments are a recommendation rather than a sign that a trade is close. The Chiefs must decide whether adding a high-profile receiver is the right answer to the problems exposed in Seattle.Get the latest Sports News and Live updates. Download the TOI app.
