NC State Interviews Super Bowl Champion as Philip Rivers Gets Familiar Competition

The NC State Wolfpack could turn to a familiar quarterback to lead their next chapter, and Russell Wilson has now taken a step toward that possibility. According to ESPN insider Adam Schefter, Wilson interviewed for the program’s head coaching vacancy Tuesday. His involvement adds another recognizable name to a search that already includes Philip Rivers. For Wolfpack fans, the connection is obvious. Both quarterbacks starred at NC State before building lengthy NFL careers. Now, the program is considering whether that experience and familiarity could translate into leadership from the sideline.
