The Green Bay Packers are trading quarterback Brett Hundley to the Seattle Seahawks for a 2019 sixth-round draft pick, according to multiple reports. The trade was first reported by ESPN's Robert Demovsky and Adam Schefter on Wednesday morning, and NFL Network's Ian Rapoport later posted a Tweet that said the pick was in the sixth round. Hundley was battling DeShone Kizer for the backup job behind Packers starter Aaron Rodgers.
Hundley has been the No. 2 quarterback in training camp and looked much better than he was in his nine starts last season after Rodgers suffered a broken collarbone. But the Packers gave up former No. 1 pick Damarious Randall in an offseason trade with the Cleveland Browns for Kizer, meaning he was unlikely to be jettisoned. In 2017, Hundley threw for 1,836 yards and nine touchdowns, but he also had 12 interceptions.
