If Tarvaris Jackson is hurt, Seahawks need another QB
Tarvaris Jackson left in the second quarter with an ankle injury. If that injury is significant, than the Seahawks have a major problem. R.J. Archer, the third stringer isn’t an NFL QB. His accuracy is really poor. Even some of completions were well off-target. Kevin Smith made at least two catches on off-target Archer passes. There aren’t many options out there. Perhaps Michael Vick will be willing to play for near the minimum. Otherwise they’re looking at someone like Tyler Thigpen or waiting until roster cuts. Right now, we needs to just pray that Jackson is alright, and it looks like that is going to be the case. Pete Carroll said after the game that it’ll probably only be a two-week injury.
Pete Carroll says #Seahawks "concerned" over Tarvaris Jackson ankle injury. 2wks perhaps. Says not sure if need to shop for QB
