That’s a wrap! Now that the Kansas City Chiefs have been crowned Super Bowl Champions, the 2022 season is officially in the books. Around the NFL writer Dan Hanzus took one last look around the league to determine his final power rankings of the year.
The Seahawks came in at No. 18 on his list.
“Geno Smith balled out for the Seahawks in 2022 and was recognized for his efforts with Comeback Player of the Year honors,” Hanzus writes. “Did he do enough to prove to Seattle brass he should be the long-term answer at QB? Speaking at the Pro Bowl, Smith sounded confident a deal will get done.
“We’ve had talks and we’re in the process of getting all that settled right now,” Smith said. “It’s looking very good.”

“The Seahawks own the fifth overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft,” Hanzus continues. “Could they extend Smith on a team-friendly deal, then take a quarterback with that premium selection? It’s possible.”
