Geno's Last Chance?
Will Smith be able to take advantage of his second chance?
Florham Park, NJ -- Since Fitzpatrick's injury. Bowles quickly made the decision to name Geno Smith the new starting QB.
"We were confident that Smith would be ready of the opportunity was given to him. He's got himself a second chance. Now its just up to him," Bowles said.
"Im ready," Smith said. "I worked all offseason for this moment. It may not have been the way I pictured getting the starting job but its how the world works I guess. Fitz has worked with me all training camp just quizzing my mind seeing if I was still mentally sharp. He's from Harvard so I guess he's always been into quizzes but anything that can help Im all for it."
It won't be an easy first task but there's a reason why the Jets drafted Smith. They felt he could be the future of this franchise and even though it may have not been the start both parties would have liked, its Smith chance to erase the past and become a leader of this team. Time will tell whether Geno is really up to it.
