Chapter 1: What are Geno Smith's thoughts on returning to the Jets?
We took the trip down memory lane last hour. How about current Gino Smith? First words from him back with the jets coming over, of course, in the trade from the Raiders, the Raiders and the jets swap seventh and sixth round picks to facilitate this deal. There's some money involved as well. We don't really care much about that because we're short on time, as you said.
So here's Gino speaking on Josina Anderson's, the exhibit show on running it back with gangrene.
This full circle moment for me, honestly, um, Man, I can remember my last touchdown was to Quincy Inunua right there in MetLife Stadium. We were playing the Ravens. That day I tore my ACL and that began my journey. And it all led me back here where it all started.
And I had forgotten that he had actually retaken the starting job from Fitz in that 16th season because he was throwing interceptions left and right, then the poor guy tears his ACL, and obviously the rest is history as far as what became of his career from that point up until now.
And to be clear, he chose this return to the Jets, which I think speaks volumes to where he's at both as a player and as a person.
I was hoping that the Raiders would give me a chance to kind of weigh my options, which they did. Ultimately, I decided that I wanted to go back to New York. It's a place that I really have held close to my heart.

Chapter 2: How did Geno's past with the Jets shape his current mindset?
It's a place that gave me my first opportunity.
That's pretty cool. I give him a lot of credit for that.
Yeah, but I don't fully believe it. Why don't you believe? Well, because they had to trade for him. The... What other player that had the, this guy's going to get released designation a week ago, two weeks ago that we had heard of, ended up getting traded? Nobody.
So the Jets, in order to make sure that the rest of the league didn't have an opportunity to get to Geno and convince him, you don't want to go back there. That place is a disease. The whole thing is a mess. they had to trade for him. So, like, think about these other – Kyler Murray, released. You know, Kirk Cousins, released. All these guys we had heard about. Tua, released.
But it was Geno Smith who had to get traded for so the Jets didn't lose him to go somewhere else. So he might not have – like, when he said, ultimately, you know, I wanted to go back to New York, I don't think he was the driving force to go back there because they could have released him and he could have gone to New York. Why did they trade for him then?
um i i can't speak to that he did reference you know there was an opportunity to stay in vegas and obviously serve as a mentor for presumably for andrew mendoza he wasn't interested in that agreed but i'm just telling you those part of the options he presented as possibilities and it's clear that he did have communication with the jets prior to this trade going down let's say he talked to aaron and aaron made him feel like you know there was a home for him
He did reference that. And looking ahead now, there's still something to prove.
So, man, I got a huge chip on my shoulder and I know that he does as well. And I wanted to align myself with the coach who has something to prove. And I believe that's what he is. And so I think that, you know, with that being said, man, we got a lot of work to do, but we're eager to get to work and to get after this thing.
And he talked about Demario Davis being back, a guy that he knows from his first go-around and wanting to reconnect with the fan base and the community. So he's come a long way. He really has.

Chapter 3: What challenges does Geno Smith face upon his return?
You just make it sound like we all know how this is going to end. On fire. We'll be talking about it to nauseam.
I was way more positive than many other people. To me, it's just the bigger story is I've never seen a team in pro sports have to trade draft picks just to get guys to not hit free agency because no one wants to play for them. It's crazy. I mean, we understand the reasoning.
I could come up with examples where teams have traded a late-round pick to get to a guy before free agency. It's not just the Jets.
But this is multiple teams, multiple guys in the same offseason. I mean, that were going to be released and then go sign elsewhere because no one wants to play for the Jets right now. And then they say, wait a second, let's get this guy in.
Desperate times call for desperate measures. When you're a 3-14 team.
It's smart what Darren Mooji is doing. Right. I'm not criticizing that. I'm just saying that's the situation the Jets are in right now. And I do believe, as I said earlier, they're taking the necessary steps to wash that sludge off of them. Sludge.
You're not knocking Mooji. It's more that what's gone on since Geno the last 10 years pretty much.
It's just crazy. Like the Browns, I don't feel like the Browns have to do stuff like this. Quincy Williams now, Brown.

Chapter 4: Why does Gio doubt Geno's commitment to the Jets?
Quincy Williams, yes. There you go. Wow, I mean, he's really taken the tour of the toilets in the NFL. Jesus. Yes, he is. Tour of the toilets.
We didn't even mention it last hour. I mean, there was an 83-point game in the NBA last night. Yeah, I know. which is pretty wild. Bam Adebayo for the heat over the Wizards. We know the Wizards stink. 150-129. So two-parter here. First, this is actually Wizards TV because this will lead to the next clip where he's actually at the free throw line tying the record previously.
Well, not the record, but the second most points scored in an NBA game held by Kobe Bryant.
Free throw to tie Kobe Bryant. And he did it, Chris. And out of respect, Eric Spulser will pull Bam Adebayo I think Spolster's actually going to keep him in the game, Drew. He's going to go for the second most points in NBA history.
I love that. They're going to have some amount that's going to be tied with Kobe. Nope. So now we switch over to Miami TV FanDuel Sports Network for the record breaker again at the free throw line.
82 points. Mama, we feel your joy.
The second highest scoring game in NBA history.
Second only to Wilt Chamberlain's 100-point game in Hershey, Pennsylvania against the New York Knicks when he was playing for Philadelphia.
83.
