Fresh off an historic season with the Seattle Seahawks that included record numbers, Pro Bowl honors and the Comeback Player of the Year award, quarterback Geno Smith is eager to get his next season started already.
Taking to Twitter, Smith posted a video of himself and some receivers training at the UCLA practice field. A shirtless Smith gets some pretty good spin on the ball over the course of the 100-second clip.
“keep spinning!” Smith wrote, adding a trio of tornado emojis.
Smith’s video already has over 300,000 views, 600 likes and 100 retweets in less than an hour.

Geno Smith won the Seattle Seahawks’ starting job in a 2022 QB competition after the team traded Russell Wilson to the Denver Broncos.
The journeyman and former second-round pick hadn’t been a Week 1 starter since 2014 but responded to the opportunity by putting up not only the best numbers of his career, but the record-setting numbers in Seahawks franchise history.
Smith went 9-8 as a starter, leading the Seahawks to the playoffs, and got a lucrative contract extension in the 2023 offseason.
All of the arrows are pointing up for Geno Smith and the Seahawks right now.
