Seahawks GM: QB Geno Smith is the starter 'until he's not'

Seattle Seahawks general manager John Schneider said Tuesday that Geno Smith is the team's starter "until he's not," the latest in a series of noncommittal comments that have fueled speculation about the quarterback's immediate future.

While speaking to reports at the scouting combine in Indianapolis, Schneider was asked if Smith is the team's starter "right now."

"Yeah, I mean, I would think -- yes, he's the starter until he's not," Schneider said before noting that new coach Mike Macdonald and his staff are staying in Seattle to build their schemes on both sides of the ball.
