Browns acquire Seneca Wallace

Associated Press

Mike Holmgren is already making deals with his former team.

The Seattle Seahawks traded backup quarterback Seneca Wallace to the Cleveland Browns in exchange for a 2011 undisclosed draft pick.

Wallace spent his entire seven-year career with the Seahawks, and was always a favorite of Holmgren’s when he was Seattle’s coach. Now the Browns’ team president, Holmgren has brought Wallace to Cleveland.

Wallace’s best season was 2008 when he started eight games in Holmgren’s last season and threw for 1,532 yards and 11 touchdowns. Wallace started two games last season while starter Matt Hasselbeck was injured.

Mason to Chargers

The Chargers claimed running back Marcus Mason off waivers from the Redskins, beginning the process of restocking their backfield.

Mason, who played two seasons at Youngstown State, spent most of his first two NFL seasons on the practice squads of the Redskins and Ravens. He played in nine games last season for the Redskins, gaining 127 yards on 32 carries.

Raiders release two

The Oakland Raiders released wide receiver Javon Walker and defensive end Greg Ellis in their latest dumping of veteran players.

The moves follow Saturday’s decision to cut ties with longtime running back Justin Fargas.

Walker was a disappointment right from the start after signing a $55 million contract that included an $11 million signing bonus two years ago.

He caught 15 passes for 196 yards and one touchdown in two injury-plagued seasons in Oakland, while being paid $14 million.
