RENTON, Wash. -- Geno Smith said he was hurt by the Seattle Seahawks' decision to not start him Monday night but happy for Drew Lock, who helped snap their four-game losing streak by throwing the game-winning touchdown pass in the final minute.

As for whether Smith will start Sunday against the Tennessee Titans in Nashville after missing the last two games with a groin injury?

"I would hope so," he said Thursday.

Signs continue to point in that direction. Coach Pete Carroll sounded optimistic on Wednesday that Smith would return this week, and the quarterback has since been listed as a full participant in both of their practices.
