All of Smith's records were career-highs along with his 30 passing touchdowns on the year. Additionally, his 73.6% is an NFL 2022-23 season best.
All previous Seattle passing records were held by Russell Wilson.
To go with Smith's record-setting season, he threw for a career-high 367 yards in the win over the Los Angeles Rams on Dec. 4, and set career-bests in week three against the Falcons with 32 completions and 44 attempts.
