The Seattle Seahawks traded quarterback Geno Smith to the Las Vegas Raiders for a 2025 third-round pick on Friday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Smith will be reunited with his former head coach Pete Carroll as the Raiders look to finally solve their hole at the quarterback position. According to the Athletic's Dianna Russini, the Seahawks are now looking to sign Sam Darnold to replace Smith under center in Seattle. Smith, who succeeded Russell Wilson as the Seahawks' quarterback, threw 71 touchdowns and 35 interceptions in his three years starting under center for Seattle. The Raiders are expected to sign Smith to a new deal, with the veteran quarterback looking to make between $40 and $45 million per season. Smith's arrival in Las Vegas can be considered an upgrade for all of the Raiders' pass-catchers heading into the 2025 season.
