Player Outlook
We are ranking Smith as a high-end No. 2 quarterback worthy of a pick in the double-digit rounds, but it wouldn't be the first time we have underestimated him. Lest you think that Smith's surprising 2022 was just about Fantasy success, he had the lowest number of off-target throws in the NFL and led the league in completion percentage despite the fact that his air yards per attempt were near league average. Smith was a legitimately good passer in 2022 and now he's added arguably the best wide receiver in the 2023 class to a group that already included DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. If Jaxon Smith-Njigba lives up to his hype and Smith plays at the level he did last year, he'll be a top-10 Fantasy QB and analysts will be eating their hats again.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: QBs to Start

    Smith gets a chance to beat up on the Giants in Week 4, much like Joshua Dobbs and Brock Purdy did in the past two games. Dobbs scored 27.2 Fantasy points against the Giants in Week 2, and Purdy had 24.2 points against the Giants in Week 3. Both of those games were on the road, but Smith's best game this season was on the road in Week 2 at Detroit when he scored 27.1 Fantasy points. Smith faced the Giants in Week 8 last year at home, and he scored 23.1 Fantasy points. I could see a similar outing for Smith on Monday night.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Solid in Sunday's win

    Smith completed 23 of 36 passes for 296 yards and one touchdown with one interception in Sunday's 37-27 win over the Panthers. He also threw a two-point conversion to Tyler Lockett. The pick was his first of the season and snuffed out a second-quarter drive, but it didn't end up costing his squad. Smith spread the ball around, completing passes to nine different Seahawks, but his lone TD went to undrafted rookie Jake Bobo on a five-yard strike in the fourth quarter. Smith will look to build on this performance in Week 4 against a Giants defense that just got gashed for 310 yards and two touchdowns by the 49ers' Brock Purdy.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: QBs to Start

    I was wrong about Smith last week when I said he was a bust alert, and he did great against the Lions with 27.1 Fantasy points. He should have the chance for another quality outing against the Panthers at home in Week 3. Carolina is without two of its best defensive players with cornerback Jaycee Horn (hamstring) and linebacker Shaq Thompson (leg) on injured reserve, and Smith should be able to lean on his playmakers in DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Kenneth Walker III in this matchup. I like Smith as a low-end No. 1 Fantasy quarterback this week.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Leads team to OT win

    Smith completed 32 of 41 passes for 328 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Seahawks' 37-31 overtime win over the Lions on Sunday. He also rushed three times for 20 yards. Smith's final line was an especially welcome sight for fantasy managers who endured a rough Week 1 from the veteran quarterback. He seemed to heat up as the game went on, working around a brief absence from DK Metcalf due to a rib injury along the way. The 11-year pro came through in the clutch by tossing a fourth-quarter, three-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Lockett before going back to his trusted wideout for a six-yard game-winning scoring toss in overtime. Smith's first 300-yard game of 2023 also was a mistake-free effort, giving him new fantasy life heading into a Week 3 home matchup against the Panthers.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Bust Alert (Start/Sit)

    Smith was a huge letdown in Week 1 against the Rams with just 11.1 Fantasy points, and I wouldn't be surprised if he struggled again in Week 2 at Detroit. Now, he did have a huge game at Detroit in Week 4 last season with 35.7 Fantasy points, but this Lions defense is much improved since then. And Smith might be playing behind a banged up offensive line this week since the Seahawks lost both tackles, Charles Cross (toe) and Abraham Lucas (knee), to injury Week 1. As a result, Seattle signed 41-year-old tackle Jason Peters, so Smith could be running for his life in this matchup.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Quiet in home opener

    Smith completed 16 of 26 pass attempts for 112 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-13 loss to the Rams. Smith led a flat passing attack that couldn't keep up with a Cooper Kupp-less Rams team. The veteran didn't make any egregious mistakes, and better days should be ahead from a fantasy perspective. The 2022 Comeback Player of the Year will attempt to come back from this dud when Seattle takes on Detroit on Sunday.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: QBs to Start

    Smith didn't have a great last game against the Rams in Week 18 with only 15.6 Fantasy points, but he lit them up in Week 13 for 28.9 Fantasy points and will hopefully replicate that performance this week. It would be great if Smith had a healthy Jaxon Smith-Njigba (wrist) for this matchup, but this revamped Rams defense should allow Smith to have a big game, even if he's only throwing to DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett. I like Smith as a No. 1 Fantasy quarterback in all leagues in Week 1 at home.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Crisp in preseason debut

    Smith completed five of six passes for 46 yards and rushed once for two yards in the Seahawks' 22-14 preseason win over the Cowboys on Saturday night. The veteran signal-caller got his first game action of the summer in, playing two series and leading Seattle to a field goal on the latter drive. Smith's completions included connections with incumbents Tyler Lockett and Will Dissly, as well as rookie first-round pick Jaxon Smith-Njigba. Whether or not head coach Pete Carroll will risk his starting quarterback in next Saturday afternoon's preseason finale against the Packers remains to be seen.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Slated to play Saturday

    GM John Schneider said that Smith is in line to play in Saturday's preseason game against the Cowboys, Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times reports. The Seahawks held Smith out of their exhibition opener last Thursday, but it appears he and the rest of the team's healthy starters will get a dress rehearsal before Week 1. As Seattle's No. 1 quarterback in 2022, he completed 70 percent his passes for 4,282 yards, 30 touchdowns and 11 interceptions en route to NFL Comeback Player of the Year honors.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Unlikely to play Thursday

    Smith isn't slated to play in Thursday's preseason game against the Vikings, Gregg Bell of The Tacoma News Tribune reports. Smith handled the initial throws with the first-team offense during pregame warmups before leaving most of the QB reps to Drew Lock. As a result, Smith's next chance for some exhibition action will arrive Saturday, Aug. 19 against the Cowboys. It's unclear if the Seahawks will give him any snaps during the preseason, but he likely doesn't need them after turning a comeback 2022 campaign into a three-year, $105 million extension with the team back in March.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Lands big payday

    The Seahawks and Smith agreed to a three-year, $105 million contract extension Monday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. A second-round pick of the Jets in the 2013 NFL Draft, Smith flamed out in his initial stop in the NFL and served as a journeyman until winning a quarterback battle against Drew Lock last summer in the post-Russell Wilson era in Seattle. Smith proceeded to put together an impressive campaign, completing 69.8 percent of his passes for 4,282 yards, 30 touchdowns and 11 interceptions while also running for 366 yards and one more score. With wide receivers DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett and running back Kenneth Walker also under contract with the Seahawks for the next three seasons, the 32-year-old Smith has the skill-position talent at his disposal to continue to put up fruitful stat lines.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Contract talks underway

    Smith has reportedly had positive contract negotiations with the Seahawks thus far, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Smith would likely be one of the top signal callers if he were to hit the open market this offseason, but it appears as if the Seahawks would like to avoid that possibility, as talks regarding an extension are seemingly moving in a positive direction. The 32-year-old quarterback put up career-best numbers across the board in his first season as a starter with Seattle, but given this was Smith's first year as a starter since 2014, any extension would likely be of the shorter variety as the team attempts to safeguard itself from any sort of regression.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Tosses two TDs in wild-card loss

    Smith completed 25 of 35 passes for 253 yards and two touchdowns with one interception in Saturday's 41-23 wild-card loss to the 49ers. He added 28 rushing yards on four carries and lost a fumble. Considering the quality of the defense he was facing, it was a solid performance from Smith in his playoff debut, but the Seahawks' defense fell apart in the second half. The 32-year-old will head into free agency after a remarkable comeback season that saw him lead the NFL with a 69.8 percent completion rate and throw for 4.282 yards and 30 touchdowns while starting all 17 regular-season games for Seattle, and his playoff performance shouldn't dissuade a team in need of a veteran QB from offering him a big contract.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Poor performance in win

    Smith completed 19 of 31 passes for 213 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions in Sunday's 19-16 win over the Rams. He added four rushes for 51 yards. Smith threw an interception on his first pass attempt of the game, which largely set the tone for the rest of his performance. While he threw multiple picks for only the second time this season, Smith managed to lead a few key drives. The first came early in the third quarter, which he capped by connecting with Tyler Lockett for a 36-yard touchdown. Though both ended in field goals, Smith also led drives late in the fourth quarter and in overtime to help Seattle win the game and keep their playoff hopes alive. Regardless of the team outcome, Smith had a very successful season from a personal perspective and should be a starter in 2023 -- whether that's for the Seahawks or with another team.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: QBs to Start

    Smith was better than I expected in Week 17 against the Jets with 20 Fantasy points, and he's now scored at least 20 points in seven of his past nine games. One of those outings was against the Rams in Week 13 at Los Angeles, and Smith had 367 passing yards, three touchdowns and one interception. The Seahawks are playing for a wild-card berth in this game, so Smith will hopefully have a big performance against the Rams, who just allowed Justin Herbert to score 21 Fantasy points against them in Week 17.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Start Him (Lineup Decisions)

    Smith redeemed himself for his two-week skid with an efficient two-score game against a tough Jets defense in Week 17. Now he'll attempt to put the finishing touches on his Comeback Player of the Year campaign against the Rams. Smith went off for three touchdowns against L.A. back in a feisty Week 13 showdown. The Rams haven't mailed in a game since getting Baker Mayfield at quarterback and should keep it competitive, which is important since Smith needs to get north of 30 attempts to have a shot at 20-plus Fantasy points. Smith is the last quarterback the Rams gave up over 20 Fantasy points to this season, and he'll be in position to do it again at home.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Tosses two TDs in win

    Smith completed 18 of 29 passes for 183 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 23-6 win over the Jets. He added 18 rushing yards on five carries. While Smith didn't produce much yardage, leaving that to Kenneth Walker and the backfield during a game in which Seattle never trailed, he was sharp when he needed to be and hit backup tight ends Colby Parkinson and Tyler Mabry for touchdowns in the first and second quarters. He's now one passing TD shy of 30 for the year, and with the Seahawks still alive in the race for a playoff spot, Smith might need to continue his remarkable comeback season for one more game in Week 18 against the Rams.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Bust Alert (Start/Sit)

    I always love the revenge game angle, and Smith started his career with the Jets. And hopefully Smith will get Tyler Lockett (finger) back for this matchup after a one-game absence. But this Jets defense will make things tough on Smith, and I would only start him in Superflex and two-quarterback leagues. Only one quarterback has scored more than 18 Fantasy points against the Jets since Week 3, and it was Josh Allen twice. Smith has struggled of late with a combined 29 Fantasy points in his past two games against San Francisco and Kansas City, and he might be fading down the stretch. I'm worried about Smith in this matchup, especially if Lockett remains out.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: Middling performance in loss

    Smith completed 25 of 40 pass attempts for 215 yards, a touchdown and an interception in Saturday's 24-10 loss to the Chiefs. He added 16 rushing yards on three attempts. Smith turned in one of his poorer fantasy performances in an otherwise impressive 2022 campaign. The 32-year-old has struggled in recent weeks, averaging 239.0 passing yards while throwing three interceptions over his last three games. Things don't get any easier for Smith in Week 17 with a stout Jets defense on deck. In positive news, the veteran signal-caller may get explosive wideout Tyler Lockett (finger) back for next Sunday's tilt.

  • Seahawks' Geno Smith: QBs to Start

    I wish Smith had Tyler Lockett (finger) for this game, but he's out. Still, Smith should get enough from DK Metcalf and the rest of his supporting cast of Marquise Goodwin, Noah Fant and Kenneth Walker III to be successful in this matchup. The Chiefs are third in most Fantasy points allowed to opposing quarterbacks, and 11 quarterbacks this season have scored at least 21 Fantasy points against Kansas City, including Davis Mills last week. Smith struggled in Week 15 against San Francisco with just 16 Fantasy points, but he scored at least 22 points in each of the six games prior to facing the 49ers. He should rebound this week in a possible shootout on the road.
