The 34-year-old Smith needed 10 wins, a passing completion rate of 69.755% or higher, plus more than 4,282 passing yards on the 2024 season in order to add $6 million to his deal,

Geno Smith passed for 223 yards and threw his career-best fourth touchdown pass to Noah Fant with 3:19 to play, and the Seattle Seahawks finished their 12th winning season in 13 years with a 30-25 victory over the playoff-bound Los Angeles Rams.

Despite the playoffs being out of reach, Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith has plenty to play for in the season finale.

Garoppolo and Rams play-calling head coach Sean McVay targeted Pritchett to swipe three points at the end of the first half. In the final seconds of the second quarter Garoppolo completed a 31-yard pass to Demarcus Robinson past and over Pritchett. That is why Joshua Karty was able to kick a 58-yard field goal on the final play of the half.

For one thing, there's a lot of money on the line in potential bonuses for head coach Mike Macdonald and his players. Macdonald told reporters earlier this week he'll be playing his starters in an effort to get that 10th win of the season.

But the finale to this sputtering, see-saw Seahawks season isn’t meaningless. Not to Geno Smith. Seattle’s final game of the 2024 season at the NFC West-champion Los Angeles Rams is the veteran quarterback’s $6 million game.
