The Oakland Raiders are expected to place quarterback Charlie Frye on injured reserve, forcing him to miss the entire 2010 season.
Frye underwent surgery on his right wrist on Wednesday and is expected to need at least four months to fully recover.
Frye, who played his college football at Akron, started three games for the Raiders last season and completed 53-of-87 passes for 581 yards with one touchdown and four interceptions.
Selected in the third round of the 2005 NFL Draft by Cleveland, Frye played three seasons for the Browns before he was traded to the Seattle Seahawks. Following the 2008 campaign, Frye signed with Oakland as a free agent.
Over his five-year pro career, Frye has played in 26 games, completed 62.0 percent of his passes and totaled 4,154 passing yards with 17 TDs and 29 interceptions.
The Raiders signed tight end Eric Butler to fill the roster spot.
Oakland's remaining quarterbacks are former Washington signal-caller Jason Campbell, Bruce Gradkowski, Kyle Boller and with Colt Brennan.
