Pro Bowl quarterback Geno Smith told SiriusXM NFL Radio on Friday that contract talks with the Seattle Seahawks are underway and the prospects of the two sides reaching a deal are “looking very good.”
Smith, 32, is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in March.
“We’ve had talks and we’re in the process of getting all that settled right now,” Smith said from the Pro Bowl in Las Vegas in an interview that aired Friday afternoon. “It’s looking very good. We think we can get some things done, but obviously those things take time. This is the process that I hate about the NFL because I just want to play football, but it’s a business as well, so we’ve got to take care of business and then we’ll get back to the football.”
Smith was one of the biggest surprises of the 2022 NFL season.
#Seahawks QBs coach Dave Canales is slated for a second interview with the #Ravens for their vacant OC job on Monday, source said. Canales, who impressed with his work with Geno Smith this year, joins Todd Monken and others as finalists.
