There was a conversation brewing behind-the-scenes at 710 ESPN Seattle during the Seahawks bye week: Does Russell Wilson have a “dad bod?”

The debate stemmed from a series of Instagram photos posted on Wilson and his girlfriend Ciara’s accounts that showed the couple relaxing, and posing, on the beach in Mexico.

Brock Huard generally likes to stick to talking about what’s happening on the field, but asked KIRO Radio’s Dori Monson for his opinion on whether the Seahawks QB has a dad bod.

“I don’t know what that is,” Dori answered.

Unlike a chiseled, buff physique, the idea of a “dad bod” is described as the balance between a beer gut and in good shape, or as Huard explained, as “a little like, you know what, I’m gonna sit down this weekend, maybe I’m gonna be in Vegas just hanging out.”

While Huard was questioning Wilson’s belly, Dori was more interested in the quality of the photos, asking if the celebrity couple had a professional photographer on their vacation.

“They were carefully posed pictures and it looked like they vacationed with a professional photographer,” Dori said. “That struck me as really odd.”

Brock: More odd than the dad bod, or you not knowing what a dad bod is?

Dori: I hadn’t even thought of a dad bod because I’d never heard of a dad bod.

Brock: Do you have a dad bod?

Dori: Grandpa bod. I’m heading toward grandpa right now.
