Episode Details

The Las Vegas Raiders are releasing quarterback Geno Smith after a disappointing season, marking a significant reset for the franchise. Smith, who joined from the Seattle Seahawks, started fifteen games with only two wins and thirteen losses. The team, with a league-worst record, will likely draft Indiana quarterback Fernando Mendoza first overall. Releasing Smith saves the team eight million dollars in salary cap space but incurs an eighteen point five million dollar dead cap hit. Smith, at thirty-five, is expected to find a veteran backup role elsewhere in the league.
