Colin Kaepernick seems to have reemerged. In Seattle.

The whispers that began about Kaepernick's game in 2014 when he was a fourth-year pro are eerily similar to the ones that are now surrounding Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson, now in his fourth year as a pro. Last week, Kaepernick was benched in favor of Blaine Gabbert and may have played his last game in San Francisco after taking the Niners to three straight NFC Championship Game appearances from 2011-13 and a Super Bowl appearance in '12.

Wilson has led the Seahawks to back-to-back Super Bowl appearances in 2013-14. The Seahawks won it all during the 2013 season.

Wilson completed just 14-of-32 passes for 240 yards with a touchdown and interception during the Seahawks' 39-32 home loss to the Cardinals on Sunday.

His play in 2015 has given Seattle cause for concern, according to Business Insider.

"While Seattle has plenty of concerns, Wilson's regression this season is alarming," Business Insider reported. "Wilson is on pace for a career high in passing yards, and his completion percentage is up, but his numbers have fallen in plenty of other places. His touchdown percentage is 3.8%, down from 4.4% last year. His yards per completion are down slightly, his passer rating and quarterback rating are down, while his interception and sack percentages are up considerably."

The Seahawks are 4-5 and have had the lead in the fourth quarter of all five of their losses.

Wilson's 33 sacks lead the NFL. In 2014, Kaepernick's 52 sacks were second worst in the league on an 8-8 49ers team.

"He's got his chances. He's got to hit some passes. He had some opportunities, and he knows it," coach Pete Carroll said, according to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. "We talked a long time about it afterward, about the ones that we missed ... there was chances down the field. The one on the pick. He was there. We were high on a couple balls that we could have hit.

"... There are things that he's got to do better. He knows that. When we miss those in critical games when we're in difficult situations, he's got to help us come through to get out of it."

Wilson already may have hit his ceiling in terms of development, according to 710 ESPN Seattle. The same can be said of Kaepernick last year, when the 49ers quarterback signed seven-year, $126 million extension before the start of the 2014 season.

Wilson signed a four-year, $87.6 million contract before the start of the 2015 season. Their salaries have forced their respective teams to allow talent at other positions to escape without being replenished.

Wilson still has seven games to turn around his fortunes. But the pressure grows greater with each game he doesn't do so.

Just like Kaepernick.
