The way he ran though, he turned around to face the pursuing defender and tried to run backwards away from him. He was twisting round as he got hit, which could have been what caused the tear.

He has prime medical care for his injury. He's set for life. Spare me the "you need to be compassionate" nonsense. There are lots of people in this world with real problems. i seriously doubt this is more than almost every single one of us will make in our lifetime. $5mm over 50 years of working is 100k a year. he's no where near set for life.

Wow. You can't live off of $100k a year without ever having to lift a finger again? Not to mention you could just put $5 million into conservative investments and probably live off just the returns.

Hael Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 I've always thought Fitz is a better qb than Geno, and that he gave us a better chance to win. But I definitely feel terrible for Geno, and I hope he gets another chance somewhere. He can still turn his career around, and it's a little unfair how he was treated here as a Jet. I mean the guy was thrust into a starting role way too soon, as he was fundamentally a long term project, not unlike Petty and Hack. For the same reason it would be bad to throw Petty out to the wolves before he's ready. It really can ruin a qb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTL Jet Fan Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Regardless of who anybody wanted to see at QB and all the in fighting on the board all Jets fans should should wish the kid well and hope for a speedy recovery. I wish him the best. I don't want to see anybody on our team have a serious injury, unless he raped my dog. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My rent is $100k a year so no i couldn't... he's only netting $2.5mm after taxes and agent fees. i bet he's got less than $1mm left. at 2% interest rate right now he's good for a whopping $20k a year in interest.

Bocajetfan Posted October 24, 2016 Share Posted October 24, 2016 Geno's career may be over due to this injury. If he played reasonably well he would be asking a 5 year contract at what would be substantial money. Due to this injury the best I see him getting is 2 years with an opt out after 1. With zero production for 2 years can't really see anyone making him a serious offer. As much a non Geno supporter that I am it's not the way I wanted to see him or any player go out. Get healthy and make me eat my words. Hey Fitz made me do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He probably knows not so much about the wrinkles and complexities of QB-ing the modern game, and zilch about any particular player's active medical status. I wish the best for Geno going forward, in his rehab, and whatever other team may be in his future. As for Namath, this old saw comes to mind: before opening your mouth, ask yourself: does this (for example, an unfortunate remark about Geno) need to be said, does this need to be said right now, and does this need to be said by me?
