The Seattle Seahawks need a backup quarterback now that Matt Flynn is in Oakland. The Seattle Times' Danny O'Neil reported Friday the team could kick the tires on Seneca Wallace, while Brady Quinn, Matt Leinart and Tyler Thigpen also could be options. One name was left off the list: Tim Tebow. The Jets are expected to release him if a trade doesn't surface -- which it hasn't so far. O'Neil writes the Seahawks briefly considered Tebow with their option running package, but they decided against it. Source: NFL.com
Russell Wilson > Tim Tebow Tebow will very likely have to put that college degree to use soon enough.
Agreed. Wilson, if his career continues on the same trajectory, is a franchise qb. Tebow, not so much. If the Jets release Tebow, he'll probably end up as a third stringer on a team, or maybe the CFL.
