The Seahawks have two quarterbacks on the active roster and one on the practice squad. They could be looking for a quarantine quarterback.
On Saturday, Seattle tried out J.T. Barrett (pictured), Alex McGough, and Tyree Jackson. Although Jackson is listed as a tight end, he entered the league as a curiously-hyped quarterback who went undrafted and signed with the Bills.
McGough, who recently got a tryout with the Bengals, was Seattle’s seventh-round pick in 2018. Barrett spent some time with the Seahawks in 2019.
The Seahawks already are keeping practice-squadder Danny Etling away from Russell Wilson and Geno Smith. Perhaps they’re realizing that, to do it right, they still need three quarterbacks for practices and a fourth who is squirreled away.
