Geno Smith News
Tuesday, June 23, 9:18 AM
New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith is being investigated for an incident in which a woman accused him of battery, according to Rich Cimini of ESPN. Police officers were summoned to Smith's home in Florida on Sunday after a woman claiming to be his ex-girlfriend called 911 and said she was assaulted by him. Nobody was arrested or taken into custody at the scene, with the Davie Police Department saying on Monday that it's "not an active case" and is still being reviewed. "We were informed [Monday] evening that, during review, it was determined that this case is being further investigated by detectives. It is active, and we cannot release any additional information at this time," a police spokesperson said in an update on Tuesday. After a rough season with the Las Vegas Raiders in 2025, in which he led the league with 17 interceptions, the Jets acquired him in a trade this offseason, and he's expected to open the 2026 season as their starter, barring a suspension from the league. Even if Smith isn't disciplined by the NFL for this off-the-field incident, he'll be an unattractive low-end QB2 in superflex leagues in 2026.

Trevor Lawrence News
Thursday, June 25, 8:41 AM
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence had his best season as a pro in 2025 in head coach Liam Coen's first year with the team. The 26-year-old former first overall pick in 2021 out of the University of Clemson went 13-4 in the regular season in 2025 with 4,007 yards, 29 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions in 17 starts. He added a career-high 359 rushing yards and nine touchdowns on 82 carries. Lawrence finished sixth in the league in passing yards and fifth in passing touchdowns. Expectations are now high in 2026 for a repeat in Coen's offense, and RotoBaller has Lawrence ranked just inside the top-10 fantasy QBs. With a strong offensive scheme helping him and plenty of weapons in the passing game, Lawrence is set up for success, but he's been working hard this offseason to try to improve as a deep passer and to improve his chemistry with receiver Brian Thomas Jr., who had a down sophomore campaign. Lawrence completed just 36.1% of passes 20-plus yards down the field in 2025. If Lawrence and the Jags can improve their efficiency downfield, a true breakout for the signal-caller could be coming.
