Good news, everyone: NO MORE STORIES ABOUT RUSSELL WILSON'S CONTRACT SITUATION!

For the last few months, every single interview that Wilson has done has revolved around his lingering contract issue, and he's been forced to come up with a billion new ways to say, "We'll see." But according to MMQB's Peter King, Wilson and the Seahawks finally struck a deal this morning, just hours before the deadline to get a new deal done:

Russell Wilson and the Seahawks have agreed to a 4-year, $87.6-million extension, per source.

Wilson would have been playing for the Seahawks this season, regardless of whether or not he signed an extension. But now, everyone can finally stop asking him about it. We, er, he couldn't be any happier about it:

Blessed to be w/ this organization for 4 more years! Can't wait to get on field w/ the fellas! @Seahawks #ChampionshipMindset #GoHawks
