Aaron Glenn Thinks Geno Smith Will Lead Jets to "Promised Land"

Tuesday, March 31, 8:10 AM

New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn said new quarterback Geno Smith is "the guy that's going to lead us to the promised land," according to ESPN's Rich Cimini. The Jets failed miserably with their free-agent acquisition of QB Justin Fields in 2025, and now they will turn to Smith, who led the NFL with 17 interceptions last year in his lone season with the Las Vegas Raiders. If Glenn is referring to the "promised land" as the No. 1 overall draft pick for 2027, we might believe him. Smith was a Pro Bowler in 2022 and 2023 with the Seattle Seahawks, but he's regressed significantly over the last two years and will now lead a Jets offense that doesn't have many playmakers behind running back Breece Hall and receiver Garrett Wilson. The 35-year-old veteran won't have much upside as a low-end QB2 option in superflex leagues. He completed 67% of his passes in 2025 for 3,025 yards and 19 touchdowns. After becoming a legitimate QB1 in Seattle, Smith is now looking more like the journeyman backup that he was earlier in his career.

Jimmy Garoppolo News

Rams Not Rushing Jimmy Garoppolo to Make a Decision

Tuesday, April 21, 7:27 PM

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said that the team wants free-agent quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to return in 2026, but they are "letting him figure out his future," according to Rams beat writer Stu Jackson. There is no timeline for Garoppolo to decide on his future, and the Rams are not rushing him. It was reported on Monday that Jimmy G is considering hanging up his cleats after 12 seasons in the NFL. The 34-year-old veteran has been with the Rams for the last two seasons, but he's appeared in just four games (one start) while working behind Matthew Stafford, who was named NFL MVP in 2025. With Garoppolo being a free agent, only Stafford and Stetson Bennett are on the roster as QBs. Even if Garoppolo decides to re-sign with the Rams and return for another season, it would not be a surprise to see L.A. address the position in this week's NFL draft on Day 2 or 3. Garoppolo has only made double-digit starts in a season three times in his 12-year NFL career.
