Seattle Seahawks trade QB Geno Smith to Las Vegas Raiders for third-round pick: Reports
The Seattle Seahawks have traded quarterback Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders in return for a third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, according to multiple reports.
The Seattle Seahawks have traded quarterback Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders in return for a third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, according to multiple reports. The move reunites Smith with former Seahawks coach Pete Carroll, who now leads the Raiders.
Smith started 17 games last season, throwing for a franchise-record 4,320 yards to go along with 21 touchdowns and 15 interceptions. His 53.8 QBR ranked 21st in the NFL.
The Seahawks finished 10-7 last year, second in the NFC West, but missed the postseason.
Seattle coach Mike Macdonald last month said Smith, 34, was their quarterback of the future.
“Geno’s our quarterback,” Macdonald said last month. “I don’t understand the conversation. It’s pretty obvious this guy is a heck of a quarterback. He’s our quarterback. We love him. Can’t wait to go to work with him.”
