Geno Smith looked to be a bit limited upon returning and was moving gingerly on the knee. But he insists it's nothing major.

"I'm fine. I'm fine. God is good," he said.

Smith missed two drives late in the second half, one was a touchdown which was led by Lock. Smith returned in the second half. The Seahawks have a bye in Week 5 so Smith will have some extra time to rest up for Week 6.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers are poised for an offseason quarterback competition between Baker Mayfield and Kyle Trask that could last deep into training camp.

Asked Wednesday about the balance between naming a starter early so he can get extra reps in the offense and allowing the competition to run its course, new offensive coordinator Dave Canales cited his experience last year during the Geno Smith-Drew Lock battle in Seattle.

The Tampa Bay job is sneakily a good one for fantasy purposes, as the team decided not to move on from any of their veteran pass catchers, despite many rumors to the contrary. Superstars Mike Evans and Chris Godwin may be aging, but they're still a fantastic one-two punch, while Cade Otton and Rachaad can pull their weight at their respective positions.
We would assume that Mayfield has the initial leg-up here since the team went out and got the former first round pick, who has 69 starts under his belt. Compare that to Trask, who has nine dropbacks to his name.

Geno Smith and the #Seahawks are finalizing a three-year contract extension worth $105M with the ability to earn $52M in the first calendar year, sources tell @theScore.

Smith earned Comeback Player of the Year and Pro Bowl honors after leading the NFL in completion %.

Smith was the fantasy QB5 last season, though he played 17 games and his per game average was the 11th-highest at his position. This signing is good news for both Tyler Lockett (WR13) and DK Metcalf (WR18), who both posted solid to high-end WR2 numbers with Smith at quarterback. Smith will be in the high-end QB2 mix in 2023.

DK Metcalf (hip) is good to play Sunday, Pete says. Same with Geno Smith. Both are good to go.

With both Metcalf and Lockett at full health, the narrow target tree should run through the two of them as normal. Each are WR2s with WR1 ceilings in Week 14.

Pete Carroll on Geno Smith vs Drew Lock: “Geno has been the number-one guy the whole time. He’s held onto it.”

Smith will start again tomorrow night at Dallas, the tweet went on to say. Carroll says that’s important that he starts again in the preseason finale. Unless you're in a deep superflex dynasty league, there obviously isn't a ton to be excited about with the Seattle QB situation, and the offense should end up being run-heavy.

Seahawks’ QB Drew Lock has tested positive for COVID-19 and will miss Thursday’s game vs. the Chicago Bears on ESPN.

Smith already had a leg up and now Lock looks like he'll miss a big chance to try and make a claim to the job in live game action starting with the ones.

Pete Carroll on who’s leading the Seahawks QB competition: “I don’t even have to say that. Geno Smith’s still the number 1 guy. He’s holding that spot at this point.”

We have Lock slightly ahead of Smith at this point in our rankings but neither is a highly-desired fantasy option either. Still, in deeper superflex leagues, this is worth following.

Smith has taken all of the first-team reps with the starters outside of the mock game.

The article would go on to mention that Lock had "appeared to be the better quarterback in the scrimmage." Neither option is genuinely going to affect the skill positions in Seattle positively, but it would be nice to know the starter for late-round 3-QB builds on Underdog and deep Superflex leagues. Lock is the better option to potentially offer DK Metcalf and Tyler Lockett a little more upside.

Now one of the sport's highest-paid receivers, 24-year-old DK Metcalf will have an opportunity to cash in another pay day in his prime years.

The Seattle Seahawks may be without possible future Hall of Famer Russell Wilson, but at least they will offer whoever wins this putrid quarterback competition one of the best young wide receivers in the game. Metcalf and Tyler Lockett will reprieve their tag team role at least one more time, but it's unclear if there will be another viable pass-game option after the duo and, possibly, Noah Fant.

Still Geno Smith running the first-team offense, Drew Lock the 2s to begin Seahawks training camp.

The tweet added Lock did get a couple of ones reps with the starting offensive line in an 11-man offense. But it was Smith who got a lot of the first team reps during offseason workouts as well, and, at least as of now, looks to have the upper hand at the QB1 spot.
