Remember that time the Seahawks were without Geno Smith on their roster? After 24 long hours, the quarterback is back in Seattle, Josina Anderson of ESPN.com tweets.
The Seahawks surprised many in the football world when they released Smith on Saturday en route to a 53-man roster. Releasing Smith, in and of itself, wouldn’t have been a big deal, but the transaction left Russell Wilson as the club’s only QB following Paxton Lynch‘s release.
As it turns out, it was all part of some clever roster maneuvering by Seattle. The Seahawks – perhaps with a wink/nod deal – were willing to risk losing Smith to another team before bringing him back on.
Yeah some clever master maneuvering to keep Geno Smith away from all those teams lined up to sign him.
LOL
Right!? Lol
Whats the point of this? Just put him on the team lol
The last time the Seahawks were about to congratulate themselves for being tricky they ended up throwing away a championship with a pass from the one yard line against New England. Apparently they didn’t learn much from that.
Should’ve given another #7 a look
Didn’t they do that with one of the ex-Viking DTs that actually went back to Minnesota?
