The Seattle Seahawks have been dealt a major blow with the news that quarterback Geno Smith has suffered a knee injury. Smith had been expected to start in the team’s upcoming game against the New York Giants, but now his status is uncertain.
Smith was injured during practice on Wednesday, and the team has yet to provide any details on the severity of the injury. Smith was seen limping off the field, and he was later seen wearing a brace on his knee. The team has yet to confirm if Smith will be able to play in the upcoming game against the Giants.
The Seahawks have been relying heavily on Smith since he was signed in the offseason. He has been a reliable presence in the pocket, and his mobility has been a major asset for the team. Smith has thrown for 1,072 yards and seven touchdowns this season, and he has also rushed for an additional 212 yards and two touchdowns.
If Smith is unable to play, it could be a major setback for the Seahawks. Backup quarterback Austin Davis is the only other quarterback on the roster, and he has not seen any regular season action since 2015. Davis is a capable backup, but he lacks the mobility and experience that Smith brings to the table.
The Seahawks will have to wait and see if Smith will be able to suit up for the game against the Giants. If he is unable to go, it could be a major blow for the team’s chances of winning. The team will have to hope that Smith’s injury is not too serious, and that he will be able to return to action soon.
