When asked if he expects quarterback Geno Smith to return as the starting QB in 2025, Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said on Seattle Sports radio, "Got no reason to say no, so I guess yeah." If Smith is still under contract with the team in mid-March, he'll earn an extra $2 million after hitting three escalators in the win over the division-rival Los Angeles Rams in the Week 18 regular-season finale. While battling injury, Smith went 20-for-27 for 223 yards and a career-high four touchdowns on Sunday to close out his fifth year with the team. His 4,320 passing yards in 2024 were among the top five in the league, but the Seahawks offense never really hit its stride this year, and Smith finished as the QB12 in overall fantasy points. Seattle could save over $30 million by cutting him this offseason, so it's not a foregone conclusion that he'll be back in 2025.

Denver Broncos rookie quarterback Bo Nix went 13-for-22 with 144 yards and a touchdown during their loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday afternoon. Nix added 43 yards on four carries, which led the team on the ground. The Oregon product started out hot completing a 43-yard TD to his college teammate Troy Franklin to give Denver an early lead on their first drive. However, the Broncos could not get anything going on offense throughout the rest of the game as the Bills shut the door after this touchdown. Nix relied on his top wideout, Courtland Sutton, in this contest as he saw a team-high nine targets and brought in five passes for 75 yards, which also led the team. Despite the tough loss, Nix enjoyed an excellent debut season, throwing for 3,7775 with 33 total touchdowns. After an impressive debut campaign, the former first-round selection is a rising asset in dynasty formats.
