Geno Smith still leading Seattle Seahawks' QB battle, but is Drew Lock gaining ground?

RENTON, Wash. -- Shane Waldron deadpanned his delivery until he couldn't help but crack a smile.

The Seattle Seahawks' second-year offensive coordinator was asked last week whether the team has any timeline for deciding the winner of the quarterback competition between Geno Smith and Drew Lock.

"Uh, Denver," Waldron said, referring to the Seahawks' Sept. 12 season opener on Monday Night Football against the Broncos and Russell Wilson, whom Smith and Lock are vying to replace. "Yes, we do have a plan, though."

The Seahawks have kept mum on that plan, but it has been clear that they're in no hurry to settle on a starter.
