The Las Vegas Raiders have secured their future with a new agreement involving quarterback Geno Smith. The team and Smith have settled on a two-year contract extension worth $75 million, as reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. This deal comes packed with incentives that could elevate the total value to $85.5 million, and it features a substantial $66.5 million in guaranteed earnings. Smith, who is currently 34, will be linked to the Raiders contractually until the conclusion of the 2027 season. This move follows his previous $75 million deal with the Seattle Seahawks, which had one year and $31 million remaining.
Proving his reliability on the field, Geno Smith has been the starting quarterback in 49 out of 51 possible games over the past three seasons. During this period, only Jared Goff, with 51 starts, and Josh Allen, with 50, have made more appearances. Smith’s performance is marked by a high level of precision, ranking him fourth in completion percentage, underscoring his status as one of the most accurate quarterbacks in the league.”
