Once there was a time when there weren't many former Seattle Seahawks quarterbacks floating around the NFL. That was because after Russell Wilson was drafted in 2012, he remained the team's starter through 2021. He was so rarely injured, his backups never played.
But now, there are a bunch. Wilson is on his third team in three seasons, as he is expected to be the starter in Week 1 for the New York Giants. Geno Smith, the Seahawks' starter for the last three years, is now with the Las Vegas Raiders. Sam Howell was a backup in 2024 and is now with the Minnesota Vikings.
