McGough is likely headed for the practice squad after the Seahawks traded for Brett Hundley on Wednesday, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports.

Seattle apparently wasn't too impressed with the backup quarterback battle between McGough and veteran Austin Davis, thus motivating the front office to bring in Hundley behind starter Russell Wilson. McGough, a rookie seventh-round pick, should at least stick with the organization on the practice squad once the preseason ends, though he'll need to clear waivers beforehand. There remains a possibility, however, that the team could carry three quarterbacks until Hundley has a strong grasp of the playbook.
