Given the season that Geno Smith had in 2022, retaining his services in 2023 would seem to be a no-brainer.
- Won the NFL Comeback Player of the Year award
- Named to the NFC Pro Bowl team
- Set franchise record with 4,282 passing yards in a single season
- Led the league in completion percentage
- Was Top-10 league-wide in QBR, passer rating, and several other stats
- Helped the Seahawks make the playoffs in what many considered a “rebuilding” year
- Outperformed his predecessor by a an extremely wide margin
- Earned every one of the incentives in his contract
The common belief is that Geno has earned a multi-year contract that will pay him somewhere in the neighborhood of $30M to $40M per year for 3 or 4 years.
