The Seahawks have claimed 25-year old WR/QB Isaiah Stanback off waivers from the Patriots.  Stanback played in 6 games for the Patriots last season and he caught 3 passes for 22 yards (7.3 avg) and he also returned 1 kickoff for 22 yards.  He has now played in 14 games in his NFL career catching 5 passes for 46 yards (9.2 avg).  He has also returned 14 kickoffs for 318 yards (22.7 avg) in his NFL career.  The Seahawks are taking a small risk on gamble because of his athletic ability.

UPDATE:  (8/8/2010) – Stanback has a torn Achilles Tendon which will cause him to miss the 2010 NFL season.
