Geno Smith just earned a cool million dollars. His incentive package includes a $1M bonus for reaching 4,000 yards passing, which he's now done.

Becomes the second QB in Seahawks history with 4,000 passing yards in a season, per @ESPNStatsInfo. Russell Wilson did it four times.

Smith had completed eight of 12 passes for 120 yards and two touchdown in the first half of the game.

Smith had completed 70.7 percent of his passes for 3,866 yards and 27 touchdown in 15 games.

He agreed to a one-year deal to return to the team. The total deal can be as high as $7 million if incentives are included.

Smith has been in Seattle for a long time.
