Geno Smith Mocks 49ers Fans With Steph Curry’s Signature Move

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Geno Smith made waves during Sunday’s matchup against the San Francisco 49ers, capping off a dramatic 20-17 victory with a nod to a Bay Area sports icon.

After scoring the game-winning touchdown, Smith imitated NBA star Steph Curry's famous "Night Night" celebration, sparking reactions from fans.

The decisive moment came with just 12 seconds left in the game. Smith scrambled for 13 yards to the end zone, dodging multiple defenders to secure the lead.

Once back on the sidelines, Smith addressed the passionate 49ers crowd by mimicking Curry’s signature gesture, flipping his hands beside his head to signify putting the game to rest.

“In the Bay, you’ve got to do it,” Smith said, reflecting on the bold move, according to Seattle Seahawks senior reporter John Boyle.

In a video clip shared by Bleacher Report, fans reacted to Geno Smith's "Night Night" move with mixed emotions.

“Geno has a huge chip on his shoulder,” one commenter remarked.

“49ers have been one of the most disappointing teams this season. I guess injuries,” another noted.

Fans also celebrated Smith’s perseverance, with one commenter saying, “Happy this guy finally pulled it off."

“Putting 49ers to sleep,” another commented.

The Seahawks, 49ers and Rams are now tied at 5-5 in the NFC West, trailing the division-leading Arizona Cardinals by one game.
