After trading backup quarterback Matt Flynn to the Oakland
Raiders, the Seattle Seahawks are in the market for a veteran reserve that can
line up behind starter Russell Wilson. While the team reportedly isn’t interested in a player such as Tim Tebow, they have been tied to Brady Quinn
and Matt Leinart, and the duo is set to visit with the Seahawks in the near
future.
Beyond Quinn and Leinart, Seattle will be hosting Seneca
Wallace – a former QB with the team – and Tyler Thigpen, according to Mike Garafolo of USA Today.
Leinart has ties to the Seahawks through former USC coach
Pete Carroll. However, the veteran has started just a pair of games since the
2007 season. Quinn – also a former high-profile college quarterback – has also bounced
around the league as a backup over the past couple of years.
Wallace and Thigpen could be more of what Seattle is looking
for, as they reportedly want to acquire a player that is comfortable handling
the read-option in case Wilson is injured.
