The quarterback competition in Seattle is finally over. Following the Seahawks loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Friday night, coach Pete Carroll announced that Geno Smith would get the nod for Seattle in Week 1 against Russell Wilson and his Denver Broncos.
“Geno was solid in his outing, and Geno’s going to start,” Carroll said during his postgame press conference. “He’s going to start the opener. He’s earned it. He’s won the job.”
