Geno Smith Injury Update: Raiders QB Status in Week 10
Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Geno Smith suffered an injury in the fourth quarter of the Week 10 game against the Denver Broncos. The injury occurred while Smith was attempting to scramble, and it appears to be related to his knee or ankle, though no official confirmation has been released yet.
With Smith sidelined, backup quarterback Kenny Pickett took over on the field. The Raiders have labeled Smith as questionable to return after he tried to continue playing despite the pain. His return depends on the team's next possession.
“Smith was able to walk off under his own power, but he was clearly hobbled. He'll get checked out on the sideline.”
“Smith tried to get up after the play, but it was clear he was in a lot of pain and he went back down on the field as trainers rushed out to tend to him.”
Most recently, Smith was seen testing his leg on the sideline after emerging from the medical tent, suggesting a possible return to the game.
Updates on Smith’s condition will be provided as further information becomes available.
Author's note: Geno Smith’s injury remains uncertain, with hope for his return hinging on ongoing sideline assessments during the game.
