Chargers restricted free-agent QB Charlie Whitehurst will visit the Seattle Seahawks on Thursday, according to a source with knowledge of the situation.

Whitehurst spent Wednesday visiting the Arizona Cardinals. Both teams are looking to add quarterback help.

The Chargers placed a third-round tender on Whitehurst, their third-string QB. If a team signs Whitehurst to a free-agent offer sheet, the Chargers have seven days to match. If they opt not to, the team that signs Whitehurst must give San Diego a third-round draft pick in return.

The Seahawks don’t have a third-round pick in this year’s draft, but the team is working on acquiring one through a trade, the source said.
