The Seattle Seahawks exchanged the quarter-Arrière Geno Smith at the Las Vegas raiders in exchange for a third round choice in the draft of NFL 2025, according to several reports. The move finds Smith with the former Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, who now leads the raiders.
Smith started 17 games last season, launching a 4,320 yards franchise record to accompany 21 affected and 15 interceptions. Its 53.8 QBR ranked 21st in the NFL.
The Seahawks finished 10-7 last year, second in the NFC West, but missed the playoffs.
Seattle coach Mike Macdonald said Smith, 34, was their quarter of the future last month.
“Geno is our quarterrier,” said Macdonald last month. “I don’t understand the conversation. It is quite obvious that this guy is a hell of a quarter. It is our quarter-arre. We love it. I can’t wait to go to work with him.
Seahawks can now turn to a quarter of a veteran free agent. The options could include the former Vikings signaler of Minnesota, Sam Darnold, whose career resurgence in 2024 was embittered by a pair of defeats to finish the season; Or Kirk Cousins, who was a splashing off -season in Atlanta just a year ago to lose his starting job.
Las Vegas needed a quarter after starting three last season. Gardner Minshew, who started nine of the 17 games, is expected to be published in several reports.
The raiders took place 4-13 last season, their third consecutive year ending with a record of less than 0,500. Carroll was hired after former coach Antonio Pierce was dismissed in January. They hold overall selection n ° 6 in the NFL draft in April.
