The Raiders are trading for veteran Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith, reuniting him with his former coach in Seattle.

The Raiders will send the Seahawks a third-round pick for the 35-year-old Smith, who prospered in Seattle under coach Pete Carroll from 2020 to 2023 and now will join Carroll in Las Vegas.

In 52 starts in Seattle, Smith posted a 28-24 record and reached the playoffs in 2023.

Smith is entering the final year of a three-year contract and is owed $14.8 million for 2025.

 

The former West Virginia standout threw for 4,320 yards, 21 touchdowns and 15 interceptions while completing 70.4 percent of his passes last season. The Seahawks finished 10-7.
