FLORHAM PARK, N.J. -- New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith will be sidelined six to 10 weeks with two fractures in his jaw, the result of a locker-room altercation Tuesday morning with reserve linebacker IK Enemkpali.
Smith was "cold-cocked ... sucker-punched, whatever you want to call it," coach Todd Bowles said in a pre-practice briefing with reporters.

Blessing in disguise?

Was thinking this as well...

 

[Bushleague]

Geno threw the first punch, but it was 5 yds short...

 

[Gorgolon Lives]

Where were the teammates to break this up, especially with a starting QB involved?

 

[KJ]

If it was a sucker punch there's no breaking up anything

Harvard has quietly had a 10 year NFL career and another starting job(albeit by default)......he will have a nice pension when it is done, even before he uses that nice degree for life after playing.

Always pulled for him.

Like someone said


Should be on NFL HardKnocks every every every year


speaking of...

 

[twinkie13]

like it...

 

[twinkie13]

exactly....shit even if they were head up


if the LB popped the QB 1st.....could break his jaw right there.


supposedly over 600 bucks.... a plane ticket that Geno didn't slick back for a football camp


at least on ESPN as reported..

 

[Alan Tongue]

Wouldn't happen if Pete Carroll was the coach. To him, the second jet wouldn't cause that much damage

 

[RetroVK]

Fortunate for Geno .. another stretch of time to not be exposed while earning starter money. Fortunate for the Jets ... another stretch of time to not have Geno as their QB1 ... unfortunate for the backup linebacker.....

 

[Zeke]

Dumb move by IK but latest I heard this morning on NFL Radio was Geno pretty much had it coming. Stiffed the dude for a $600 plane ticket, left someone waiting for 2 hours at the airport to pick him up then was in his face with a finger. I think if some overpaid dick at my place of work owed me $600 then put a finger in my face, I may just haul off & deck him also. You don't always think about repercussions during the heat of an argument.

yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

 

[hare1994]

Steve Spurrier asked whether he's ever had QB punched in jaw. "Don't think so. Don't think I've ever had QB that owed people money, either."

made me think of Stephen Garcia

 

[Eric8923]

Didn't Stephen Garcia have a gambling problem?

Didn't Stephen Garcia have a gambling problem?

just alcohol if i am remembering correctly

 

[Elbutre88]

jumping that fence and injuring his leg or whatever is the highlight of his career for me.
