Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith put in the time and effort to earn his way back to a starting position in the NFL. He credits the veterans he backed up over the years, including Russell Wilson, who he’ll now go head to head with when the Broncos come to town on Monday night.
“My time here with Russ was awesome,” Smith told reporters on Friday. ” . . . I really appreciated the time we spent together competing. We competed a bunch. You know whether it was in the classroom, weight room, on the field, and I think that made me better.
