Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith headed to the locker room with an injury halfway through the third quarter of Seattle's "Sunday Night Football" clash with the Green Bay Packers.
While there's a case to keep Smith and see how far he can take this team with an improved offensive line, there's a stronger case to cut him, pocket $25 million in cap space and start over with a younger quarterback.
Geno Smith has had quite the year for the Seattle Seahawks. He’s third in the league in passing yards per game, trailing only Joe Burrow and Jared Goff, and is one of just four starters in the NFL completing more than 70% of their passes, all while leading the Seahawks to a 5-1 record against NFC West competition to keep them in playoff contention.
Seattle Seahawks starting quarterback Geno Smith suffered a knee injury in a blowout Week 15 primetime defeat to the Green Bay Packers. Smith exited the contest and was replaced by backup signal caller Sam Howell. Howell was ineffective, completing five-of-14 passing attempts for 24 yards and an interception.
After 314 yards and 3 touchdowns in a 3-point loss to 13-2 Minnesota, Smith has just 160 with 0 TDs in 6-3 win at lowly Chicago.
Brock Huard and Mike Salk try to make sense of yet another roller-coaster performance by Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith.

NFL Network's Daniel Jeremiah explained why the Seattle Seahawks might not be as far away from fixing their offensive line as it seems.
Seattle Seahawks offensive coordinator Ryan Grubb will reach the conclusion of his first campaign in charge in Sunday's Week 18 regular-season finale versus the Los Angeles Rams. Grubb was appointed by first-year head coach Mike Macdonald.
It goes without saying that Seattle’s 26-20 defeat to the Rams in Week 9 ended up proving costly. Had Macdonald’s club defeated Sean McVay in their first meeting, they’d be playing for the division title on Sunday. The Rams took a 20-13 lead in the fourth quarter through a Geno Smith pick-six.
