We know that, after 2024, teams will decide to make changes. Possibilities when the current season ends include the Jets, Steelers, Browns (if they\u2019re willing to eat $92 million for Deshaun Watson), Titans, Raiders, Giants, Saints, Rams, and Seahawks.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"incontent-ad-1\" class=\"pw-incontent\" data-label=\"Advertisement\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"pw-ad-scroll-container pw-hide-in-content-out-of-view\" data-pw-in-article=\"true\">\n<div class=\"pw-ad-container-logo\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Three Dak Prescott touchdowns in 7 on 7 red zone <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/sDsEZETR8d\">pic.twitter.com\/sDsEZETR8d<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Clarence Hill Jr (@clarencehilljr) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/clarencehilljr\/status\/1820537342047977742?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 5, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Though Geno Smith still has two years remaining on his deal, Seattle could save $25 million in 2025 by cutting the 2022 Comeback Player of the Year.
