The Seattle Seahawks' starting quarterback, Geno Smith, faces yet another new beginning as he gears up for the season opener with new center Connor Williams. Despite the challenge of integrating a fresh player in the pivot position, Smith feels optimistic about Williams' talent and adaptability. Williams, coming off a knee injury, has shown impressive recovery and is poised to lead the offensive line.

Smith noted the importance of their off-field work to build chemistry, recognizing Williams' quick understanding of the offense. Although they have limited practice time together, Smith is confident that Williams' seasoned experience will ease the transition, allowing the duo to effectively communicate during games.
