The Seattle Seahawks are in need of a new franchise quarterback, having agreed to send theirs to the Denver Broncos. - On that score, Seattle is expected to explore trade scenarios for Houston Texan star Deshaun Watson, who has serious legal issues hanging over his head. The team also got a top-10 draft pick from Denver in the Russell Wilson deal, putting them in position to get one of the top prospects in the 2022 NFL draft class. - The Carson Wentz trade between the Indianapolis Colts and the Washington Commanders tells us alot about that class of quarterbacks, though, so the Seahawks may not be able to find a suitable potential long-term successor to Wilson this offseason – even if Liberty’s Malik Willis is there at No. 9. - One name that often gets overlooked in these situations is former San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who hasn’t played since the 2016 season after being blackballed by the NFL over his social justice protests. - Kaepernick shared a workout video yesterday, renewing the conversation about his viability as a QB in this league. One person who thinks Kaepernick shouldn’t give up on playing is Seahawks wide receiver Tyler Lockett, who shared these words of encouragement. - - Never give up bro! Keep chasing your dreams!
