Geno Smith News
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.

Lamar Jackson News
Monday, April 6, 4:44 PM
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson was present for the start of the team's offseason program on Monday. Jackson is coming off an injury-plagued and disappointing 2025 campaign for Baltimore, and he's also looking to get a head start after a regime change to new head coach Jesse Minter and new offensive coordinator Declan Doyle. The four-time Pro Bowler and two-time MVP appears to be in good standing with the front office as they work towards a contract extension with two years currently remaining on the five-year, $260 million contract he signed with the Ravens in April of 2023. Jackson played in only 13 games in 2025, throwing for 2,549 yards, 21 touchdowns, and seven interceptions while rushing for 349 yards and two touchdowns on a career-low 67 rushing attempts. If the 29-year-old can put his lower-body injuries behind him in 2026, he'll be a clear bounce-back candidate with high-end QB1 potential. Jackson is still one of the most lethal dual-threat signal-callers in the NFL.
