Seattle defeated quarterback Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos 17-16 at Lumen Field, leading to a postgame interview that would spark a viral moment.
“They wrote me off,” said Smith. “I ain’t write back though.”
Smith and Thompson discuss how the quote has become the catalyst for his career, as he continues to defy the odds.
“I didn’t realize it would be as big as it maybe got,” said Smith. “But in-the-moment, I kind of knew what I was saying. I’ve been preparing for this, so I don’t really have anything to say. I’ve been working hard and just getting ready for the moment to come again. So, it was exactly the way I wanted it to play out.”
Smith discusses what he’s learned the most from Coach Pete Carroll.
“He’s given me that self-confidence,” said Smith. “He’s given me a new lease on life. I’ve always been a little hard on myself. I’m always like ‘You’re not good enough.’ But he helped me change the way I talked to myself a little.”
