The Seattle Seahawks appear to have found their new QB3.
Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reported on Monday that the Seahawks have signed quarterback Jaren Hall. The 26-year-old Hall will be joining Seattle’s practice squad for the time being, Pelissero adds.
The former BYU standout Hall was a fifth-round pick by the Minnesota Vikings in the 2023 NFL Draft (No. 164 overall). He made two starts for the Vikings last season after Kirk Cousins was lost to a torn Achilles but got waived by the team several days ago.
For the Seahawks, Geno Smith, a Pro Bowler for a second straight year last season, is locked in as the starter, and newly-acquired Sam Howell will serve as his backup. But Hall should work well beyond that as he has a bit more upside than this other QB that Seattle signed and released this offseason.
