Geno Smith’s Pro Bowl season with the Seahawks was one of the biggest surprises of the NFL season. In his first season as a starter since 2014, the veteran threw for 4,282 and 30 touchdowns, both career highs by far. He also led the league with a 69.8% completion percentage on his way to his first Pro Bowl selection.
Now, Smith enters the offseason as a free agent ready to cash in on his strong season. However, he doesn’t seem interested in testing the market, as he and Seattle are currently talking about an extension.
“We’ve had talks and we're in the process of getting all that settled right now,” Smith said. “It’s looking very good, we think we can get some things done, but obviously those things take time. This is the process that I hate about the NFL because I just want to play football, but it's a business as well, so we've got to take care of business and then we'll get back to the football.”
