The Seattle Seahawks didn’t take long to replace Drew Lock on the quarterback depth chart. Former Washington Commanders starter Sam Howell was acquired by Seattle via trade, with the Seahawks sending a 2024 third- and fifth-round pick to Washington in exchange for Howell, as well as 2024 fourth- and sixth-round selections.
Howell was drafted by the Commanders in the fifth round back in 2022, but only played one game as a rookie. He started every game of the 2023 season, throwing 21 touchdowns and 21 interceptions while throwing over 600 passes on one of the league’s worst teams.
