SO SAD: Seahawks, quarterback Geno Smith explained why he will no longer continue with the team…

With the second overall pick in the NFL draft in April, the Washington Commanders have made it possible for the team to select a quarterback.

According to numerous sources, the organisation is trading Sam Howell, a former starting quarterback, to the Seattle Seahawks. Howell will go to the Seahawks along with fourth and sixth round selections, while the Commanders will select players in the third and fifth rounds.

After the 2022 fifth-round pick made just one start in his debut season, Howell took over as the Commanders’ starting quarterback the previous season. With Howell leading the NFL in interceptions (21), sacks taken (65), and throw attempts (612), the season proved to be a bore. After losing their last eight games to finish with a 4-13 record, Washington fired coach Ron Rivera.

With the arrival of offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury and new general manager Dan Quinn, the Commanders appeared ready to select a quarterback with the second overall pick in the draft. The club has most frequently been associated with Heisman Trophy winner Jayden Daniels and Drake Maye, the former North Carolina quarterback who succeeded Howell.
Marcus Mariota, the quarterback, and Washington reached a one-year contract on Tuesday, setting him ready to assume the backup job.

After current starter Geno Smith, Howell will probably come in second in Seattle. There were no other signal-callers on the roster when backup Drew Lock signed a free agent contract to play for the New York Giants.
