Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith is optimistic about playing against the Minnesota Vikings this Sunday after recovering from a knee injury sustained in Week 15 against the Green Bay Packers. Despite not being at full strength, Smith expressed his eagerness to contribute to the team's playoff push.

Smith's injury occurred during a hit from Packers linebacker Edgerrin Cooper, forcing him to miss part of the game, which ended in a disappointing loss. With the Seahawks in must-win mode, Smith is determined to lead the offense effectively in their final home game of the regular season.
