RENTON, Wash. Xavier Cedeno Cubs Jersey . - Russell Wilson has generally shied away from commenting on social issues during his professional career.That changed Thursday when the Seattle Seahawks quarterback spoke out about domestic violence and candidly about being a bully as a child in a column for Derek Jeters new website.Ive tended to avoid controversial topics throughout my career, but in my first piece for The Players Tribune, I wanted to be open and address something thats important, timely and relevant, Wilson wrote. Ive been silent on the issue for too long, falling back on the I cant speak to someone elses personal life excuse. But victims need physical, emotional and financial support and care, and the resources to get away from their abusers. Abusers, you need to get help a€” you can change.The column by Wilson, who was announced as a senior editor for The Players Tribune, talks about his goal to raise funds and awareness through his new foundation a€” the Why Not You Foundation a€” with an initial focus on supporting victims of domestic violence.Wilson also wrote about being a bully in elementary and middle school, saying, I had a lot of anger that I didnt know what to do with. That admission surprised teammates who read the column.Well, he said that he used to beat people up. Thats a surprise, Seattle cornerback Richard Sherman said. Obviously, he said hes turned a different page in that book, but its still pretty interesting to see that.Wilson wrote that the perception hes given is that hes been Mr. Goody Two-Shoes his entire life. But he admitted to throwing kids against a wall, rubbing their heads in the dirt, biting them and knocking out teeth.Wilson wrote he changed at age 14 and was able to start living for others instead of just myself. And now that his professional career is established, with a Super Bowl title in hand, Wilson said he is focusing on helping domestic violence victims in the wake of the attention turned on the NFL following the Ray Rice case.Wilson wrote that the issue needs to be addressed and not avoided and that aggression needs to be kept on the field.How many of you reading right now knew that October is Domestic Violence Awareness month? I certainly didnt. I had to Google it, Wilson wrote. And thats part of why I felt so inspired to do my part. This initiative, this story, is about acknowledging something difficult, something wed rather not see. When I look back at beating kids up on the playground, I dont like that image. But I moved past that place in my life, and Im proud of the man I am now.Seattle coach Pete Carroll said he talked with Wilson earlier this week about his decision to start a foundation and come out with such a strong first statement. Carroll said the team would support Wilson every way it could.Im really proud of him. I think hes involved himself in a critical issue that maybe he can elevate awareness like were all trying to do for the right reasons, Carroll said. I thought his statements were well thought out and very clear. ... Im hoping it has a great impact and people will pick up on it and add to it and well see what happens.NOTES: Carroll said LB Bruce Irvin is the only injury question headed into Monday nights game. Irvin suffered a rib injury during practice heading into Seattles game against Denver two weeks ago. Carroll said he believes Irvin will be able to play. ...
