Geno Smith: 'No reason to say' QB won't be back in 2025

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald, when asked on Monday, Jan. 6, about QB Geno Smith's prospects to return in 2025, said, "I got no reason to say no. So, I guess, yeah."

27 days ago

Fantasy Impact: Smith and the Seahawks won 10 games in 2024, and while the QB had some inconsistency throughout the season (most INTs since his rookie season), he showed some promise as well (top five in completion percentage, career-high passing yardage, and best turnover-worthy play rate since joining Seattle). It would be more ideal to hear a head coach commit to his QB, and trade rumors will likely be common throughout the offseason in a scarce market, but there's little reason to believe Smith will be anywhere else in 2025, at least for now.

Expert Note

Since Week 11, Smith has been the QB35 in fantasy points per game. Among 39 qualifying passers during that span, he has ranked 14th in yards per attempt, 19th in passer rating, eighth in highly accurate throw rate, and 28th in fantasy points per dropback. Smith is a low-end QB2 this week. Since Week 12, the Rams' pass defense has improved, allowing the seventh-fewest yards per attempt, the sixth-lowest passer rating and CPOE, and the 13th-fewest fantasy points via passing. The Rams will trot out backups on defense for at least part of the game this week, but I don't know if Smith can take advantage of it.
