National reports emerged late last week that the Seattle Seahawks are expected to address starting quarterback Geno Smith’s contract this offseason. Smith is currently slated to enter the final season of a previously signed three-year extension. It’s fairly unrealistic to expect September to arrive without some sort of solution.
