Paxton Lynch

Paxton Lynch waived by the Seahawks on Friday

The Seattle Seahawks waived quarterback Paxton Lynch.

What It Means:

A former first-round pick, Lynch struggled in Thursday's final preseason game, sealing his fate with Seattle. The Seahawks will go with just two quarterbacks to start the season with Geno Smith backing up Russell Wilson. Lynch could find his way onto the Seattle practice squad if he clears waivers.

Lynch has completed 79-of-128 pass attempts (61.7%) for 792 yards, 4 touchdowns, and 4 interceptions in his two seasons in the NFL.
