Geno Smith Fantasy

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith made a solid case for his roster spot in the team's preseason finale against the Los Angeles Chargers. He completed 11-of-15 passes for 90 yards along with two carries for 20 yards. After being out of the league for the 2019 season, Smith spent last year with the Seahawks, and he will likely be on the team again this year as the primary backup for star quarterback Russell Wilson. He'll likely never play as long as Wilson is healthy, but if Wilson were to sustain an injury, Geno would likely enter the lower part of the QB2 category.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith (concussion) was injured during the preseason loss to the Las Vegas Raiders. Smith will remain in concussion protocol, so he may not be available for the team's next exhibition matchup on Saturday against the Broncos. Nonetheless, not too many managers are likely upset with the latest news, especially since he doesn't have much value in nearly every fantasy format imaginable. If the 30-year-old can't go against Denver, Alex McGough and Sean Mannion could split preseason snaps.

The Seattle Seahawks re-signed quarterback Geno Smith to an undisclosed deal on Thursday. Smith has served as Russell Wilson's backup for the last two seasons, and he will be back for a third year in 2021. The 30-year-old was a former second-round pick of the New York Jets and played in just one game last season, completing four passes in five attempts in a Week 17 win over the San Francisco 49ers. Smith will be insurance in case the Seahawks wind up trading Wilson before the 2021 season, although those rumors have cooled off significantly. Smith spent the first four seasons of his NFL career with the Jets before also playing for the New York Giants and Los Angeles Chargers for single seasons in 2017 and 2018. He did not play at all in 2019 and attempted just four passes for the Chargers in five games in 2018.
