Seahawks quarterback Trevone Boykin was arrested early Monday morning after a car crash left eight people with injuries (via ESPN.com). Boykin was a passenger in the car, not the driver, but he is facing misdemeanor charges of marijuana possession and public intoxication.

The driver, Shabrika Bailey, reversed her car at a high speed at around 2:00 am, hitting pedestrians on the sidewalk and crashing into a bar. Bailey was hit with a host of charges, including a felony. For Boykin, the legal trouble is not quite as serious, but he is on probation stemming from a late 2015 incident in which he allegedly struck a police officer.
Boykin, a TCU product, went undrafted in 2016 but was scooped up by the Seahawks soon after. Serving as a backup to starter Russell Wilson, Boykin completed 13 of 18 passes with one touchdown and one interception.
The only opening for Colin Kaepernick. But he’s not going to accept a min salary right? He’ll have zero chance of starting. He’ll just be a body. That or the Hawks take someone in the 5th. Min salary guys are out there still – Thad Lewis.
Seattle isn’t going to bring in that drama given they already have Sherman to deal with.
No I mean this is the only spot that makes sense, no one else is running read option.
Kaepernick in a Seahawks Uniform? NO WAY!!He’ll divide ANY team that signs him! Paul Allen won’t allow it whether it “makes sense” or not! Let someone else take on all the baggage he brings!
If he’s already on “Probation” this is probably going to lead to a Suspension…. Maybe the Hawks even release him. God I hope not! But PLEASE not Kaepernick!!!!
