John Gilbert is the Field Gulls Deputy Editor and has covered the NFL's Seattle Seahawks since 2016. He specializes in the salary cap, the collective bargaining agreement and statistical analysis, with an occasional film breakdown sprinkled in.
The Seattle Seahawks have not shied away from making moves at the quarterback position this offseason. First, the team agreed to trade incumbent starter Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders for a third round pick, and then turned right around and signed free agent Sam Darnold away from the Minnesota Vikings.
It appeared that would likely have left Sam Howell as the apparent backup for Darnold, however, according to a report Friday afternoon from NFL insider Tom Pelissero the Seahawks have reportedly agreed to terms on a reunion with Drew Lock, most recently of the New York Giants.
