Drew Lock has been in a backup role for the majority of his NFL career, and that was the case with the Seahawks. Geno Smith was the starter in Seattle, and based on his reaction to seeing Lock’s new deal with the Giants, it’s clear that the two of them had a good relationship despite competing for the same job.
In the whirlwind of NFL free agency activity, the New York Giants recently made a significant move by signing Drew Lock, who previously played for the Seattle Seahawks. Lock, who spent three seasons with the Denver Broncos before his stint with the Seahawks, served as a backup behind starting QB Geno Smith last season. Despite primarily occupying backup roles throughout his NFL career, Lock’s new deal with the Giants suggests a potential shift in his trajectory. Interestingly, despite competing for the same position, Lock and Smith evidently maintained a positive relationship, as evidenced by Smith’s reaction to Lock’s move to the Giants.
