Seahawk QB Hasselbeck heading to Arizona?

Apr 12, 2011, 4:35 PM | Updated: 5:56 pm

Saying the Cardinals need a new quarterback, while somewhat of an understatement, is still factually correct.

So, it should not be a surprise when every quarterback with a pulse is linked to Arizona, even if one of the options has been one of the team’s biggest rivals over the last few years.

According to ESPN’s John Clayton, Seahawks QB Matt Hasselbeck is not likely to return to the franchise he’s spent the last 10 seasons playing for.

And, if he does leave?

“He could go to Arizona, because I think Arizona’s gonna be more of a team looking for a veteran quarterback,” Clayton said.

That’s right, Arizona. Now, many may shudder at the thought of the 35-year-old lining up under center for the Cards, but the veteran does have a career rating of 82.2 and has been on some successful teams.
