Further testing of Geno Smith's knee delivers "a lot of positive, optimistic signs"

Geno Smith underwent imaging on his injured knee Monday, and it appears the Seahawks quarterback escaped serious injury.

The MRI showed no structural damage and no fractures.

"We’re fortunate. A lot of positive, optimistic signs coming out of the tests," head coach Mike Macdonald said Monday, via Brady Henderson of ESPN. "Geno’s a beast, man. He’s in here working out in the morning, working through it. I know he’s still feeling it, but this guy’s tough as nails."

Smith injured his knee on a low hit from Packers rookie linebacker Edgerrin Cooper in the third quarter. Smith did not return, playing 35 of 59 snaps in the 30-13 loss.

Smith went 15-of-19 for 149 yards and an interception.

The two-time Pro Bowler has completed 69.9 percent of his passes for 3,623 yards with 14 touchdowns and 13 interceptions this season.
