Geno Smith Injures Ankle


JetNation

Recommended Posts

Geno Smith injured his ankle during the 3rd quarter of the Jets preseason game against the Detroit Lions.  The injury occurred as Geno scrambled for a short gain.  He walked off the field with a limp and the trainers taped his right ankle on the sideline.  Greg McElroy took over at QB and later in the 3rd quarter Geno Smith went into the locker room.  He walked off the field on his own and we will have more updates on this injury as information is released.

Geno Smith was 6/7 passing for 47 yards on the game, with a 94.6 QB Rating.

Playing football can't be fun for anyone but crazy people. There's no way you're not feeling horrendous after even a few plays, and almost no shot at missing out on a rolled ankle or some other dumb injury during a game. 

 

there's a reason why the average length of an nfl career is about 6 years

Hope he is not hurt but I have said it's best he sit and watch the speed of the game and let Sanchez completely blow up so we can continue the next phase of the rebuild. Hoping the 2nd phase at least glances the offense way. Need QB,WR,RB and OL - outside of that everything is peachy. GO JETS!!!

I merged this in with the existing Geno Smith thread about last night.  We like to keep similar conversations in the same thread.  Thanks.
