Head coach Pete Carroll said that Smith will start Friday's preseason finale against the Cowboys, John Boyle of the Seahawks' official site reports.
Carroll suggested that Smith will play early on in the contest, after which Drew Lock is set to receive extended playing time, according to Bob Condotta of The Seattle Times. At this stage, the team has yet to announce a starting quarterback for Week 1, with Carroll noting Tuesday that the Seahawks will take "all the time (they) need" to make a decision on that front, per Brady Henderson of ESPN.com. To that end, Carroll implied that Smith remains ahead in the competition, but noted that he's "wide open" to the possibility that Lock could overtake Smith.
