Geno Smith Named Starting Quarterback For Seattle

Link copied to clipboard!

2 years agoSeattle Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll announced quarterback Geno Smith would be the starter in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. Drew Lock struggled mightily and threw three interceptions in the preseason finale against the Dallas Cowboys; shortly after that performance, Seattle announced Smith as the team's starting quarterback. He completed three of six pass attempts for 43 yards and led the Seahawks to a field goal in his lone series in Friday's loss. The 31-year-old wasn't the best last year but was serviceable during his time as the starter while Russell Wilson was out due to a finger injury. From Weeks 5-8, Smith threw five touchdowns and one interception, averaging 175 yards per game. Smith and Lock have been fighting for the starting gig all offseason, so if the veteran doesn't perform well during the first couple of games, there is a good chance Lock will take over. While Smith is starting, he will be a low-end QB2 at best, making him mainly an option in superflex league formats. --Ryan Ramsarran - RotoBaller
