Geno Smith shocked the NFL world this season when he proved to be one of the better quarterbacks in the NFL after being benched and a back-up for seven years before earning a starting spot once again, and he could now become available for teams to consider signing.
Having been benched by the New York Jets in 2014 after getting into an altercation with his teammates, Smith spent the next seven years with the Jets, New York Giants and Los Angeles Chargers and three years as Russell Wilson's back-up in Seattle with the Seahawks.
The Seahawks traded Wilson away this season, giving Smith an opportunity to start on one of the weaker looking rosters in the NFL. But Smith's excellent play lead the Seahawks to the play-offs in what was a fascinating year from the quarterback, who was subsequently named to the Pro Bowl team.
