Raiders Set To Release Geno Smith

Per Adam Schefter, the Raiders are set to release QB Geno Smith barring a trade. The decision comes after Smith's subpar 2025 season, where he led the NFL with 17 interceptions. The Raiders, who signed him to a lucrative two-year, $75 million extension through 2027 will be cutting him after just a year. Releasing Smith before March 13, 2026, would save the team $8 million in cap space while leaving an $18.5 million dead cap hit.
