| Chargers | Backup QB battle heating up |
Fri, 09 Aug 2013 20:19:33 -0700
San Diego Chargers head coach Mike McCoy said the battle for the primary backup job behind QB Philip Rivers is an open competition between QBs Brad Sorensen and Charlie Whitehurst. "Like we said before, the depth chart is what it is today. We're just letting it go. Everyone's going to get an opportunity and we have a lot of time left to make all of those decisions," McCoy said.
Fantasy Tip: Sorensen led the team on its only touchdown drive, while Whitehurst tossed a pair of interceptions. Either way, unless Rivers goes down with a long-term injury, neither of these guys is likely to sniff the field much.

Jackson ended up coming on after two drives by Whitehurst and throwing for a career-high 323 yards off the bench.

"(Jackson) will be ready to go in terms of playing the mental side of it by the end of this week. We just need to see physically if he can handle it."

| Seahawks | Tarvaris Jackson receives full support from coach |
Sun, 21 Aug 2011 11:14:13 -0700
Seattle Seahawks QB Tarvaris Jackson continues to receive support from head coach Pete Carroll despite another poor preseason showing. Jackson hit 11 of 21 passes for 75 yards and an interception, which was returned for a touchdown, against the Minnesota Vikings. Carroll said the team needs to give Jackson more help and protect him better. The Seahawks' offensive line was manhandled by the Vikings, which led to Jackson spending most of his time on the field running for his life or being knocked down when attempting passes. The interception he threw wasn't his fault, either, as it slid through the hands of WR Golden Tate and into the hands of a defender. Despite QB Charlie Whitehurst looking solid in the second half, hitting 14 of 19 passes for 97 yards and a touchdown, Carroll said there is not a quarterback controversy -- or even a battle -- in Seattle.

Whitehurst said he would love to be the team's starting quarterback this year, but noted he is simply going to go out on the field and work.

Tue, 26 Jul 2011 22:46:31 -0700
Seattle Seahawks QBs Charlie Whitehurst and newly acquired Tarvaris Jackson are expected to be given the first shot at battling for the team's starting quarterback duties. Jackson has experience in the offense, as he played in the same while with the Minnesota Vikings. They may not be the long-term answer to the quarterback position, as Seattle could revisit their quarterback position after the offseason. Free-agent QB Matt Leinart (Texans) may also be part of the equation in 2011.

The Seattle Seahawks are monitoring the market for Philadelphia Eagles QB Kevin Kolb. It appears more and more likely the Seahawks will lose unrestricted free-agent QB Matt Hasselbeck, so the Seahawks will be in the market for Kolb but have concerns about giving up a first-round pick for him. The team has a backup plan in place, as they could continue to develop QB Charlie Whitehurst and possibly acquire unrestricted free-agent QBs Tarvaris Jackson (Vikings) and Matt Leinart (Texans).

Seattle Seahawks QB Charlie Whitehurst is planning on being the team's starting quarterback this upcoming season. Although Whitehurst is the only quarterback under contract, he acknowledges the Seahawks will add a veteran quarterback. "Luckily I'm not going through the free-agent stuff like some guys are going through. I know I'm the only quarterback that's on the roster right now, and I'm sure that will change eventually when we get it figured out. I look at it like I'm going to get the chance to be the starter, and I think I can do it. That's what I plan to do. Whenever we figure it out, I'll compete as hard as I can to make that happen."
