Seahawks QB Geno Smith Confirms Plans to Play Against Vikings After Knee Injury

Smith, recovering from a right knee injury, says he is improving daily and aims to help Seattle in a pivotal playoff push.

Geno Smith, injured in last week's game against Green Bay, participated fully in practice and expects to play Sunday against the 12-2 Minnesota Vikings.
Smith sustained a right knee injury after a low hit but avoided structural damage, with tests confirming no serious issues.
The Seahawks are tied with the Rams at 8-6 in the NFC West and must win to maintain control of their playoff destiny, with a division title still possible.
Smith has acknowledged playing through less-than-ideal physical conditions for much of the season and emphasized his determination to finish strong.
Seattle faces a challenging matchup against Minnesota, who are competing for the NFC's top seed, in their final home game of the regular season.
