he Seattle Seahawks (6-6) are looking to avoid a four-game losing streak by defeating the San Francisco 49ers (9-3) in Week 14. However, there’s renewed concern over Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith.
While Smith has been dealing with a bruised tricep for weeks, he suddenly appeared on Thursday’s injury report as a limited participant due to a groin injury. Considering the 33-year-old told reporters on Thursday, December 6 that his arm “was still not 100%” and “not close to it,” mixing in a groin injury is worrisome.
The Seahawks need Smith to be near perfect to defeat their division rival at Levi’s Stadium on Sunday, December, 10. Seattle is considered a 10.5-point underdog against San Francisco, but Smith is confident they can defeat those odds.
Smith and Co. put up an impressive 35 points in their loss to the Dallas Cowboys last week, and the offense is looking to keep that momentum going.
“I think just overall, if you look at the way we played, just the effort we played with, the intent that we broke the huddle with, just the way that the receivers ran and caught the ball, the protection, anytime you’re scoring a lot of points, that’s something that you want to build on,” Smith told reporters.
