Seattle waived Barrett on Saturday, per the NFL transactions page.
EDGE Analysis
Barrett originally signed with the Seahawks shortly after being waived by the Saints at the start of training camp. The 24-year-old has yet to see any regular-season action since going undrafted out of Ohio State in 2018. Barrett will now have to try to find an opportunity elsewhere.

Barrett signed with Seattle on Saturday, John Boyle of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Barrett was waived recently by New Orleans but found a new home after just nine days. He'll provide depth at quarterback for the Seahawks in the wake of Geno Smith's knee injury. With Smith only slated to be out seven-to-10 days, however, Barrett's time with the team may not last long.

Barrett was waived by the Saints on Thursday, Herbie Teope of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
EDGE Analysis
Barrett signed a reserve/future contract with New Orleans after spending most of the season with the team's practice squad. Given that he was the fourth quarterback on the roster, his waiving doesn't come as much of a surprise. The move leaves the Saints with Drew Brees, Teddy Bridgewater and Taysom Hill still on their roster, which will likely be the trio by the end of camp.

Barrett signed a reserve/future contract with the Saints on Monday, Nick Shook of Around the NFL reports.
EDGE Analysis
Barrett's transaction history reads more like a long receipt than anything else. Drew Brees isn't going anywhere and the Saints seem enamored with the prospects of Taysom Hill. Teddy Bridgewater will likely test the free agent waters this offseason. Whether Barrett can ultimately latch onto the 53-man roster in August seems hinged on variables out of his control. At the very least, Barrett will have an opportunity to showcase what he can bring.

Barrett signed a contract with the Saints' practice squad Saturday, Brett Martel of the Associated Press reports.
EDGE Analysis
This marks the 11th time Barrett has been signed to the Saints' practice squad over the course of the 2018 season. While it's highly unlikely the former Ohio State quarterback will be lifted to the active roster during New Orleans' playoff run, it's becoming clear that the team sees something appealing in Barrett as a long-term prospect.
