The Seattle Seahawks have had positive quarterback play from Geno Smith over the past three seasons. However, Smith has yet to lead the Seahawks to a win in the playoffs, putting him and the team in a strange place of mediocrity.

If the Seahawks and Geno Smith can’t agree on an extension early this offseason, Las Vegas would seem to be logical trade option now that Carroll is there. The Raiders need a QB and Carroll has an affinity for Smith, once calling him one of his all-time favorite players.

Howell was a full-time starter in 2023, and he was traded to the Seahawks a little less than a year ago to give the team some insurance if Smith wasn't good enough. Well, Smith did just good enough to warrant keeping him around, but not enough to produce any meaningful playoff results.
