Green Bay sends backup QB Brett Hundley to Seattle for a 2019 draft pick

The move likely clears up the backup quarterback spot for both teams.

What’s the trade?

NFL Network says Seattle is sending a sixth-round draft pick in 2019 to Green Bay.

Hundley, a fifth-round pick in 2015, started nine games for the Packers last season due to a broken collarbone for Aaron Rodgers. Green Bay was 3-6 in those games, with Hundley completing 60.8 percent of his passes with nine touchdowns and 12 interceptions.

Why did Seattle trade for Hundley?

Because while Packers fans might not speak highly of Hundley, he’s probably better than either of the quarterbacks the Seahawks had behind Russell Wilson when Wednesday began.
