Our Reading

The game followed a familiar script.

Geno Smith, once a promising rookie, has had a career marked by ups and downs.

He threw nearly twice as many interceptions as touchdowns in his first season with the Jets.

After a stint with the Giants, he bounced around to the Chargers and Seahawks, finding success in Seattle.

Smith’s comeback story is a reminder that even the most unlikely players can revive their careers with hard work and determination.
