FOLLOWING: upon all challenge i we still stand for development Mike Macdonald the head of seattle made the statement just now..
We have some challenges,” Lynch said, via Pro Football Talk. “We have a lot of good players, a lot of good players who we’ve rewarded. Brandon’s one that we think incredibly highly of, one of my favorite guys around our building, the way he approaches the game. He’s a competitor.
He’s a warrior. He plays with such physicality, also with grace, in the way some of the positions his body can get into. And then he’s got a flair for making plays when [they] matter most, and he’s served us very well as a franchise. And I think we’ve got a nice track record of extending the players that are important to us, and Brandon’s the guy we want to keep around for a long time.”
Schneider added there was never a doubt that QB Geno Smith would be with the team in 2024: “Other people made a bigger deal out of that than we did in the building.” (Bob Condotta)
On Smith, Schneider continued: “He was going to be here. It was a matter of like when are we going to tell him we are doing this with his roster bonus.” (Condotta)
When talking about backup QB Drew Lock, Schneider noted they consider him a part of their plans going forward: “We’ve got a cool group of guys that we want to get all of them back.” (Condotta)
Seahawks GM John Schneider said he views Geno Smith as the team’s starting quarterback: “[He’s] the starter until he’s not.” (Michael-Shawn Duger)
