Understanding the keys to learning a new offense from experience, Geno Smith has taken quickly to Ryan Grubb's system early alongside a new backup in Sam Howell.
In fact, now teaming with his seventh different offensive coordinator during stints with four different teams, an offseason without new terminology and concepts to absorb may feel more foreign to him. Right at home comfort level-wise as he and his teammates acclimate to new play caller Ryan Grubb's system, the veteran signal is light years ahead of where he was earlier in his career with the Jets on that front.
As Smith noted, the process of mastering Grubb's offense has been aided by continuity at the skill positions. Seattle will roll into the 2024 season with Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, Smith-Njigba, and Jake Bobo, the team's top four receivers,, while pass catching tight end Noah Fant re-signed on a two-year contract.
While some veteran starters may not be keen on the idea of mentoring or assisting a backup quarterback, particularly a young player of Howell's caliber who could still be a long-term starter down the road in the league, Smith has once again embraced that role as he did with Lock when the two players competed for a starting job in 2022.
