Seattle to let quarterback Smith collect almost 13 million dollars

Seattle Seahawks QB Geno Smith, who has 12.7 million dollars in his deal that is set to become fully guaranteed tomorrow, was informed today that he will keep his place in the team.

Gino’s deal calls for his almost 13 million dollar base salary for the upcoming campaign to become fully guaranteed tomorrow as he remains in Seattle until the deadline for his contract. That money was guaranteed for injury only at the time the quarterback inked his 3-year, 75 million dollar contract last offseason.
