Las Vegas Raiders Move On from Geno Smith, Clearing Path for Top Draft Pick
The Raiders have decided to part ways with quarterback Geno Smith after just one season, releasing him despite the $18.5 million in dead money theyll incur. Smiths departure comes after a series of short-term quarterbacks failed to improve the teams performance, following Derek Carrs departure. The Raiders struggles are attributed to recent coaching changes and a dismal three-win season, marked by poor offensive protection and scheme issues. With Smiths exit, the team is now focused on their expected top draft pick, quarterback Fernando Mendoza, aiming to end the quarterback revolving door and rebuild the roster.
