You had been pondering it; Geno Smith mentioned it.
The Seattle Seahawks quarterback participated in one other episode of the Richard Sherman Podcast following the shocking and stellar win towards the San Francisco 49ers in Week 11.
They’ve been nice collectively, delving into sincere evaluation of offense, protection, preparation, and different sides of ball the best way that two greats can.
However throughout the interview, Smith acknowledged one thing on the sidelines actually ticked him off.
I used to be really simply smiling as I used to be operating on the sphere for that final drive, I knew we had been going to win. Someday within the third quarter, I seemed over at their bench and noticed KJ [Wright] standing there. I used to be like what the…? We have now to beat these boys. After I noticed KJ, it simply type of pissed me off. He’s a Seahawk. He shouldn’t have these colours on.
Clearly, Smith was referring to former Seattle linebacker KJ Wright, who now serves as a defensive high quality management coach for San Francisco.
I’ll admit, when the cameras featured Wright on the sidelines, carrying a headset and a dumb purple shirt, I almost yelped. The one factor that held me again was a relaxed, practiced fortitude being in enemy territory surrounded by California in-laws in central Bay Space. Regardless, the triple take was robust.
For those who felt it too, you weren’t alone.
KJ Wright carrying a headset on the 49ers sideline is sickening.

It’s particular to have so many gamers from the LOB period who’re nonetheless so invested in ball that we get to maintain tabs on a lot of them. Wright, Sherman, Bobby Wagner, DeShawn Shead, Marshawn Lynch kind of, and on it goes.
Perhaps after the season and the 49ers clear home, Mike Macdonald might need a spot on his workers for some added linebacker perception. We gotta get KJ the heck out of there.
