Raiders quarterback Geno Smith played five seasons in Seattle, three as the Seahawks starter, before the team traded him to Las Vegas. There apparently is no love lost.<\/p>\n
Smith was caught by photographs and videographers flipping a fan a double bird before the preseason game in Seattle on Thursday night.<\/p>\n

Edge rusher Maxx Crosby made the same gesture as he ran onto the field.<\/p>\n
The fan held a sign that read: Bigger Bust \u2014 Geno or Jamarcus Russell?<\/p>\n
Russell was the No. 1 overall pick of the Raiders in 2007, who made only 25 starts in three seasons with the team before flaming out of the NFL. Smith, a second-round pick of the Jets in 2013, started two seasons in New York before a seven-year wait to become a full-time starter again when he replaced Russell Wilson in Seattle.<\/p>\n
Smith played only four snaps against the Seahawks before taking a seat on the bench. Crosby played nine snaps.<\/p>\n
Smith and Crosby both face fines for their obscene gestures as Lions safety Brian Branch lost $10,128 for flipping off fans last season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Raiders quarterback Geno Smith played five seasons in Seattle, three as the Seahawks starter, before the team traded…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":273629,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2081],"tags":[1524,7,1507,28075,1744,6563,6,572,238,237,261,2635],"class_list":{"0":"post-273628","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-seattle-seahawks","8":"tag-brian-branch","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-geno-smith","11":"tag-jamarcus-russell","12":"tag-las-vegas","13":"tag-maxx-crosby","14":"tag-nfl","15":"tag-russell-wilson","16":"tag-seahawks","17":"tag-seattle","18":"tag-seattle-seahawks","19":"tag-seattleseahawks"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/114997415765574224","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273628","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=273628"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/273628\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/273629"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=273628"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=273628"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=273628"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
