Former Super Bowl-winning quarterback Joe Namath was watching his New York Jets play the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday, and he couldn’t understand why Geno Smith wasn’t playing quarterback after suffering knee injury.
Smith hurt his knee while being sacked in the second quarter. He left the game, and the Jets him out ruled out shortly after. Ryan Fitzpatrick, who was benched and replaced by Smith entering Week 7, came in and led the Jets to a 24-16 win.
Smith didn’t back down from the criticism, and he fired off this tweet following the game.
The quarterback position has been a mess for the Jets all season long, and Namath’s tweet certainly didn’t help the situation.
