Geno Smith will start Friday's preseason game against the Steelers.

Fantasy Impact

Smith will see his first action on the field this season. He'll likely only play one or two series.

Jets coach Aaron Glenn said the starters will play in the preseason opener against the Bucs on Friday.

Glenn said the goal is to get the starters 25-30 reps combined in the three preseason games.

Aaron Glenn announced that Geno Smith will be the Jets' starting quarterback heading into 2026.

Fantasy Impact

Across 15 appearances this past season with the Raiders, Smith threw 19 touchdowns to 17 interceptions. A change of scenery could help him get back on track, but his days as a fantasy-relevant quarterback are likely over.

Geno Smith has been traded to the New York Jets for sixth round pick. The Raiders are also sending a seventh.

Fantasy Impact

The Jets just might have their bridge quarterback. Though Geno struggled mightily last season, he’s going to be about as cheap an option as any, especially with the team as an undesirable destination for free agent QBs. After some years away, Geno has returned to the Jets. But, the team may not be done just yet at QB.

Connor Hughes of SNY reports that "all signs point towards" Geno Smith returning to the Jets.

Fantasy Impact

The Jets can't officially sign Smith until Wednesday. He may not be the only quarterback they sign in this free agency period as they're also interested in Carson Wentz.
