Quinn's deal was finalized on Thursday, but terms of the contract were not available. Quinn and the Seahawks agreed to terms of the contract earlier this week.

Quinn joins Josh Portis as the expected backups to Wilson. Quinn played last year for the Chiefs, starting eight games. It was his first regular-season playing time since the 2009 season.

Backup safety Chris Maragos also signed his one-year contract tender on Thursday. Maragos was a restricted free agent and a special teams standout for the Seahawks last season.

  Defensive line a priority

  April 3, 2013 11:25 am

  I am glad that John Schneider and Pete Carroll have made the defensive line a priority. That was not always the case with Mike Holmgren and company.

  Any QB

  April 12, 2013 12:24 pm

  coming to seattle knows he has absolutely no chance of playing. So, Quinn is OK with sitting on the bench and doesn't have a problem with not playing. Exactly what kind of person did we get?

  More excellent management by the Hawks Brass

  April 3, 2013 11:57 am

  Great to see. I never want to see a 4th quarter like we saw in Atlanta with virtually no pass rush and Irvin getting steamrolled on 1st and 2nd downs.

  Young guys need to step up

  April 3, 2013 12:45 pm

  For our defense to do better in 2013, we need our DT to step up especially in pass rushing downs. Imagine if we had just 1/10 of the dominance that we had when Tez was there. Finding another Tez is once in a generation, but if we can find a few guys who can provide QB pressure, it will go a long way in creating more turnovers. I think McDonald, McDaniel and perhaps a guy or two in the draft could be an answer.

  our defense will be #1

  April 12, 2013 11:31 am

  Our d line will be better. We have a chance or potential to have 4 defensive linemen to go over double digit sacks. Clemons, irvin, avril and bennett. All had 8 or 9 sacks. Clemons had 11. Move bennett into the dt spot next to mebane. You'll have red Bryant, bennett, mebane and either clemons, irvin or avril in roatation for de. Our Defensive line is stacked. Find a way to get hem all onto the field. Then from there your Making our defensive backs that much better. Sherm, bambam, browner and earl and maybe winfield? Our defense will be the best along with our two young good linebackers. Maybe draft another and have the best defense for the next at least 5 years. Defensive backs rely on defensive lineman and vice versa to have dominace at both ends? And solid linebacker play? Yeah.. eff the 40winers. There weak. All they had over us was a good d line. They have no secondary. But we have matched and so foth passed them up on defense. Were younger, bigger, faster and believe. Don't get me started on the offense..

  Bad signing: Brady Quinn SUCKS!

  April 19, 2013 1:26 am

  We need a capable back-up quarterback, not one that has proven he can't do a darn thing on the field. Bad signing. Waste of money.
