Smith Has Fantastic Practice, Says He’s Eager To Master Jets’ New Offense

FLORHAM PARK, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — The quarterback remains the question for the New York Jets.

The defense is revamped, the offense reloaded. Now, it’s time for Geno Smith to step up. And, he knows it.

“I believe that we all have to take the next step, we all have to raise our level of play and me, as the quarterback, my game has got to be on point every single week,” Smith said Wednesday. “I have to be on top of my game mentally and physically, so it’s something that we all know.”

Veteran guard Willie Colon said about as much recently during a radio interview, comparing the new-look Jets to a Porsche and Smith being handed the keys.
