Seahawks are realistically the only team that has a bad enough need for Jimmy, but to their credit they seem committed to tanking with Lock and Geno. Now if/when the 49ers cut Jimmy they might make a run, but that seems like a mistake too. Jimmy is probably a slightly above replacement level QB, Seahawks could be a 7-10 team with him, when they should be gunning for 4-13. But if Jimmy does get free then his market becomes very interesting, not many places he could be a guaranteed starter, but lots of places where he could backup and eventually start.
49ers have kind of botched this situation though. Realistically you can't bring him back and have a guy who nearly took you to the Super Bowl last year as the backup. Lance is probably gonna have struggles this year, much better for him to have Nate Sudfeld as the alternative than Jimmy. But to get nothing at all for Jimmy, even a late round pick, seems like bad asset management.
