FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — After previously being vague about the situation a few days ago, Jets head coach Todd Bowles said Geno Smith will play after starter Ryan Fitzpatrick in the preseason game against the Giants on Saturday night.
So, at least for now anyway, he’s still the No. 2 quarterback.
“You always prepare the same way,” Smith said after practice Wednesday. “It’s really no different. I’m just continuing to work hard.”
There had been some uncertainty about the pecking order of the backups after Bryce Petty had a good performance and Smith struggled against Washington.
