  Seahawks | Trevone Boykin added to practice squad    Tue Sep 5, 01:24 AM

Free-agent QB Trevone Boykin (Seahawks) was signed to the Seattle Seahawks' practice squad Monday, Sept. 4.

Footballguys view: Boykin was pretty bad in August and he lost the backup job to Austin Davis. He's an athletic QB, but Boykin needs help when it comes to decision making as a passer....and oh yeah, he needs to stay out of trouble off the field.

  Seahawks | Seattle makes roster cuts    Sun Sep 3, 12:50 AM

The Seattle Seahawks released QB Trevone Boykin, WR Cyril Grayson, DT Tylor Harris, WR Kenny Lawler, TE Marcus Lucas, FB Marcel Reece, WR Darreus Rogers, WR Rodney Smith, TE Tyrone Swoopes and WR Kasen Williams Saturday, Sept. 2.

Footballguys view: Austin Davis will back up Russell Wilson. Williams is a bit of a surprise after a strong preseason but he was claimed by Cleveland and could quickly bid to be their #3 receiver.

  Seahawks | Trevone Boykin struggling    Sat Aug 5, 12:50 AM

Seattle Seahawks QB Trevone Boykin has been struggling in training camp, according to Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times, and Condotta believes Seattle could bring in a veteran quarterback if Boykin doesn't improve.

Footballguys view: If he continues to struggle will we hear Colin Kaepernick's name again? We're talking backups, which have little to no value in fantasy beyond as handcuffs. This is more out of curiosity in the ongoing Kaepernick saga.

  Seahawks | Trevone Boykin staying with Seattle?    Fri Mar 31, 09:20 PM

Seattle Seahawks QB Trevone Boykin could remain with the team after his recent arrest, according to head coach Pete Carroll. 'We'll see, we'll see what happens here, we have some information to get through, there's plenty of time to figure this out,' Carroll said. 'Early indications are that we'll give him an opportunity to be back with us.'

Footballguys view: Boykin was undrafted out of TCU last year, and this isn't his first time tangling with the law. The Seahawks might look for another backup to Russell Wilson.

  Seahawks | Trevone Boykin still Seattle's No. 2 QB    Fri Aug 5, 12:26 AM

Seattle Seahawks QB Trevone Boykin remains the clear No. 2 quarterback behind QB Russell Wilson, but general manager John Schneider said he is keeping an eye on the quarterbacks who become available during training camp.

Footballguys view: Boykin, an undrafted rookie from TCU, has the athleticism to work well in the Seattle system. His raw skill set does need some refining, and trusting him as a primary backup QB on a Super Bowl caliber team is a bit risky.

  Seahawks | Trevone Boykin remains No. 2 for now    Thu Jul 21, 02:51 AM

Seattle Seahawks rookie QB Trevone Boykin remains the team's primary backup to starter QB Russell Wilson, but beat writer Sheil Kapadia says don't be surprised to see the team add a veteran sometime in August.

Footballguys view: Wilson has been very healthy so the risk is low, but we all know what happens when a top-shelf quarterback goes down to injury with an inexperienced player the only one left to take over. We expect someone else to show up unless Boykin REALLY impresses in camp. Stay tuned.

  Seahawks | Trevone Boykin charged with assault    Tue Jun 28, 10:22 PM

Seattle Seahawks QB Trevone Boykin was charged with assault this week in connection with an incident Dec. 31 in San Antonio. He was arrested after being thrown out of a car, and then he allegedly struck a police officer, according to multiple reports.

Footballguys view: This isn't a new incident, and it's one the team was well aware of when they added Boykin as an undrafted free agent this year. Boykin is in line to win the job as the primary backup behind Russell Wilson in 2016.

  Seahawks | Trevone Boykin continues to rise    Fri Jun 3, 11:33 AM

Seattle Seahawks QB Trevone Boykin appears to be the backup to QB Russell Wilson right now ahead of QB Jake Heaps. The Seahawks' confidence in Boykin continues to grow during offseason workouts. There remains a chance that the Seahawks wind up re-signing QB Tarvaris Jackson, though.

Footballguys view: Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll has been impressed by Boykin. He was a star QB at TCU but fell undrafted this year. The Seahawks scooped him up because he has a similar skill set to that of Wilson. Boykin is an athletic passer with a good arm, and he put up astronomical numbers at TCU (over 10,000 yards passing, 2,000-plus rushing yards, 114 TDs). We're watching him in all dynasty formats.

  Seahawks | Trevone Boykin could be backup    Thu May 12, 06:47 PM

Seattle Seahawks QB Trevone Boykin has a good shot at earning the backup quarterback position behind QB Russell Wilson, with only QB Jake Heaps with whom to compete. Head coach Pete Carroll thinks Boykin's style of play fits well with Seattle's offense and is similar to Wilson.

Footballguys view: Wilson is still the man here, and with his contract running until the end of the 2019 NFL season, that won't change but Boykin is a good safety net against serious injury as he will not require a change to the offense if Wilson is hurt.

  NFL | Trevone Boykin invited to combine    Thu Feb 11, 01:31 AM

Texas Christian QB Trevone Boykin has received an invitation to the NFL Scouting Combine and he will be working out with the quarterbacks. According to sources, Boykin has also been doing receiver work during his combine preparation, but there are no current plans for him to run routes or catch passes at the combine or his pro day at TCU.

Footballguys view: Boykin is another guy whose off-field issues are a problem (he was arrested for a bar brawl and suspended for his team's Alamo Bowl appearance) but the trickier aspect is his game. Is he a receiver or can he make it as a quarterback? Teams might be leaning towards him as merely a signal caller, since there are no plans for him to run routes, but there are a lot of miles yet to go in this process.
