Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson is keeping his calendar full.

Wilson hosted the Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Sports Awards Thursday night, which is just part of his increasingly busy schedule.

The Super Bowl-winning quarterback might be outgrowing Seattle, KIRO Radio’s Don O’Neill theorized.

“I think he wants out of Seattle and wants a bigger stage,” Don said.

Don believes Wilson has his heart set on a larger city, such as Los Angeles. Wilson seems to be talking more about himself these days, Don added.

“Not that there’s anything wrong with that,” he said. “I think Seattle has become too small for him and he doesn’t want to be here any more.”

Don’s speculation follows ongoing contract negotiations between Wilson and the Seahawks, as well as making appearances around the country.
