The Seahawks want Geno Smith back. At least that’s what Pete Carroll and John Schneider are saying in public. Last offseason fans learned that we can’t always take what they say at face value – especially regarding their plans at quarterback. However, for now we will assume they’re telling the truth and do plan to bring Smith back for 2023 and possibly beyond.
The question now is how much he’s really worth. $30 million per year seems to be the popular dividing line between what fans are willing to accept and what they feel is too expensive. Richard Sherman says if Smith gets less than that it would be a travesty given how Smith performed this year.
