Seattle Seahawks QB Sam Howell got off to a tough start in camp, dealing with issues with his timing and accuracy, but he has improved recently, per ESPN's Brady Henderson, who notes that Howell ran the first-team offense on Thursday, Aug. 1, with QB Geno Smith (hip, knee) sitting out. Still, while Howell made some nice plays, he continued to struggle with his accuracy.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield finished in a tie with Washington Commanders QB Sam Howell in 2023 for the most batted passes in the league with 20, according to Pro Football Reference. Mayfield finished fifth in batted passes with 16 during the 2022 season despite only playing in 12 games.
Huddle Up: The 2023 season saw Mayfield make some progress in avoiding batted passes, as he went from one batted pass every 21 attempts to one every 28.3 attempts. The fact that Mayfield is a shorter quarterback (6-foot-1) does not help matters, especially considering he does not throw off his toes like Drew Brees. Mayfield is a difficult projection for fantasy in 2024, as he likely owes a lot of credit for his career turnaround to former offensive coordinator Dave Canales, who left to take the head coaching job with the Carolina Panthers. As such, he should be considered a middling QB2 option in fantasy.

Seattle Seahawks QB Geno Smith will not have any competition for the starting job next season, and QB Sam Howell knows he will be the backup, according to head coach Mike Macdonald.
Huddle Up: Smith will have to learn a new offense this offseason but still has one of the better receiver groups in the NFL. He probably should be considered a No. 2 fantasy quarterback in most fantasy leagues and will not be in the starting lineup often.
