Packers are heading into the 2018 season with new backup quarterbacks.The Seahawks acquired quarterback Brett Hundley from the Packers on Wednesday for an undisclosed draft pick.Green Bay announced the trade late in the day Seattle Seahawks Hoodie , completing the deal on the cusp of the preseason finales for all teams.The addition of Hundley gives Seattle a proven backup behind Russell Wilson. The Seahawks are reportedly sending a late-round draft pick to Green Bay and coach Pete Carroll said it was another opportunity to improve the Seahawks roster.“It his fourth year now, he’s played quite a bit and started a bunch of games last year,” Carroll said. “We’ve been able to see him and really see how he has developed, and we liked him coming out of college as well. He’s big, he runs well http://www.theseahawksfanshop.com/Phil-Haynes-Jersey , he’s got a good arm, he’s got good vision on the field, he’s made a lot of big throws and big plays. He really gives you the thought that he could come in the game and keep it moving. So we just thought it was too good of an opportunity to pass up.”Hundley stepped into a starting role last season for the Packers when Aaron Rodgers went down with a broken collarbone. Hundley started nine games and the Packers went 3-6. He threw for 1,836 yards and nine touchdowns, but also threw 12 interceptions.His acquisition likely means the end of Austin Davis’ stint as Wilson’s backup in Seattle. Davis has been with the Seahawks since the start of the 2017 season.In Green Bay Gary Jennings Jr. Jersey , the deal means that DeShone Kizer has won the backup job behind Rodgers. The former second-round pick started 15 games for the winless Cleveland Browns last season as a rookie and was acquired by the Packers in the offseason.Seattle’s backup quarterback situation has been tenuous for several seasons ever since Tarvaris Jackson was not re-signed after the 2015 season. Wilson played through significant injuries in 2016 with Trevone Boykin only being used in brief moments and last season Wilson took every offensive snap with Seattle avoiding having to use Davis as a replacement.But Davis has been inconsistent this preseason and rookie seventh-round draft pick Alex McGough has shown enough promise to be a development option as a backup for the future. That still left Seattle in a shaky spot not wanting to use a rookie should something happen to Wilson and why the trade for Hundley makes sense.Hundley started nine of 11 games last season when Rodgers was injured. His best game came in Week 13 when he threw for 265 yards and three touchdowns in a win over Cleveland. But Hundley also had games where he struggled, twice failing to pass for more than 100 yards in losses to New Orleans and Tampa Bay.Hundley is also entering the final year of his rookie contract and will be a free agent after the season.The deal could also clear the way for the Packers to keep promising undrafted free agent Tim Boyle as a third quarterback.“I think I’ve progressed pretty fast. It’s a pretty hard offense. I take pride in the fact that I’m learning every day. Obviously, having (Rodgers) in front of you helps you out a lot,” Boyle said Tuesday. “But it’s a business and I understand that, so whatever happens http://www.theseahawksfanshop.com/Cody-Barton-Jersey , happens.” Kam Chancellor’s career is over due to a neck injury and Seahawks General Manager John Schneider said recently that Chancellor’s time on the team’s roster will come to an end before the start of the regular season in a move related to the team’s salary cap, so Wednesday’s appearance with former teammate Cliff Avril on KJR wasn’t a bad time to discuss what’s next.Specifically, it wasn’t a bad time to discuss whether Chancellor sees himself becoming a coach who will use his experience as a safety in the NFL to develop other players. Chancellor said he is working on other business ventures at the moment and doesn’t think that coaching will be part of his future.“So I never close any doors,” Chancellor said, via the . “I always keep everything open because you never now where life is going to take you. But right now I don’t see it.”Chancellor said that he hasn’t found it hard to fill his days since football came to an end and that “the only difference is I’m not in that much pain anymore.”
