Jets Q&A: Rookie WR Devin Smith continues to struggle

What's going on with Devin Smith?

The rookie sat in front of his locker, hunched over with a towel wrapped around his waist. To his right was Jets receivers coach Karl Dorrell. After another poor performance by Smith in a 24-17 loss to the Texans, Dorrell felt it necessary to offer encouraging words.

The former Ohio State standout dropped a potential touchdown pass and was the intended receiver on Ryan Fitzpatrick's first fourth-quarter interception.

"Just didn't catch it. Gotta come down with it," Smith said of dropping a deep ball down the left sideline with the Jets trailing 24-10.
