.@IanFurnessSea has learned that the @Seahawks are signing QB Paxton Lynch.

The 2016 1st round pick by the Denver Broncos out of Memphis played 3 games in his rookie season and 2 in 2017 before being released last year.

Best of luck to him.

Sweet, now we should strike while the iron is hot and offer the #10 overall pick for Wilson! What do they need him for? They have the great Packin’ Lunch now!

Hmm. I hate Carroll - wouldn't be particularly happy if he looked good playing there.

As much as they're seemingly moving the offense away from Wilson with all that running I kind of don't get what they're doing.

That said imagine he's camp fodder. Odd signing for them.

Another quick-draw for Carol. Far as I can tell this news really started breaking like 10 minutes ago...

Camp fodder I'm guessing.

Seattle Seahawks signed former Broncos’ QB Paxton Lynch, as @IanFurnessSea reported. A chance to compete for a job to back up Russell Wilson.

Ex-Broncos QB Paxton Lynch has officially signed a reserve/future contract with the Seahawks, per NFL transactions (as noted by others).

Gives Seattle an option behind Wilson with no other backup QBs currently under contract.

Good for him.

I have a nice bootleg Lynch if anyone wants it 2x

Hmm. I hate Carroll - wouldn't be particularly happy if he looked good playing there.

Bwa-hahahahahahahaha! Looked good playing what? PS4?

Did you get hit on the head and forget how terr-bad Paxton actually is? He spent three years and never got any better because he never put in the work.

It's about the most intensive job you can imagine. I for instance am much too lazy to ever do anything that hard, even if I were a great athlete, which of course I never was. I was the guy who got picked last in gym.

I have a feeling this was probably a given for most people here.

I agree, he's likely just camp fodder, but it is a good fit for him. If he's going to latch on somewhere and revive his career, their offensive system is one that suits his physical talents the best.

I'm not going to be bitter, glad he's not in Denver anymore, but best of luck kid, hopefully you've grown up a bit and are ready to put the work in this time.

Yeah I don't hate the guy. Not his fault where he was drafted. Classic case of a guy going too high because he's a QB.

Paxton is the anti-Russell Wilson. He's a tall lunkhead with no work ethic.

You never know how a guy will do with a second chance. He probably came in thinking he was hot shit as a first round pick, now he has to fight for his career. I do agree though that if his work ethic doesn't change from what it was in Denver he'll be out of the league in short order.

I'll give you the work ethic part, but people can change. I doubt he will, but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

The reason I think he'll fit their system well is because he's, mobile, and has a good arm. His accuracy sucks, but he has a good arm.

If he can put the effort in and try to grow, that's a good situation for him. I doubt very much he does and he probably won't make it out of camp.
