Geno Smith Fantasy

Seattle Seahawks backup quarterback Geno Smith was arrested on suspicion of DUI on Monday morning and was released on $1,000 bail. Smith has been Russell Wilson's backup the last two seasons, but he will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and this arrest could prompt Seattle to move on heading into 2022. In four games this year (three starts), Smith completed 68.4% of his 95 pass attempts for 702 yards, five touchdowns and one interception while carrying the ball nine times for 42 yards and one score on the ground. He was only able to guide Seattle to one win in three of his starts while Wilson was on Injured Reserve due to a torn ligament in his finger.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith had a couple of rough weeks in place of quarterback Russell Wilson (finger), but he played well in Week 8 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He completed 20 of 24 passes for 195 yards and two touchdowns. He also ran twice for eight yards and found the end zone. The Seahawks were in desperate need of a win in a tough NFC West division, and Smith helped them get at least one before Wilson possibly returns following the team's bye next week. In Smith's first matchup with a below-average defense, he showed that he could bring positive fantasy value. If he has to continue in place of Wilson following the team's bye week, he wouldn't be the worst option for fantasy managers in superflex leagues as a QB2 streamer.

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith has struggled in his first two starts, but he has a chance to show some real value in Week 8 against the Jacksonville Jaguars. The Jaguars have been one of the worst teams in the NFL this season, especially on the defensive side of the ball. They've given up at least 20 points in every game, and they've generated just two total turnovers this year. Smith and the Seahawks offense have been rather conservative, due in large part to terrible matchups. However, the Jaguars don't have the defense to slow down this offense. Smith still lacks the top-end ceiling that other players at his position do, but he does have some low-end QB2 appeal in superflex leagues this week.
