With a win Sunday, Geno Smith beat all four of his previous teams this season.
Moreover, in beating the Jets, Smith has now completed a season sweep of every NFL team he was with before signing with the Seahawks in May, 2019. The Jets selected Smith the 39th overall pick in the second round of the 2013 draft out of West Virginia, and Smith's tenure with that team was ill-fated and injury-filled. He signed with the New York Giants in 2017, playing mostly a backup role. He then signed with the Los Angeles Chargers in 2018, and barely played at all.
Cool, indeed. Smith gets one more chance in the regular season to continue his amazing season story when the Seahawks welcome the Los Angeles Rams to Lumen Field. The next thing he should be seeing is a rather large next contract that very few expected when the season began.
