Geno Smith reportedly signing with Giants
The New York Giants have reportedly reached an agreement on a contract with former New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith.
Adam Schefter and Jordan Ranaan of ESPN were the first to pass the news along:
Giants expected to sign former Jets QB Geno Smith, per @JordanRaanan and me. Smith and Brandon Marshall teammates again.

The Cleveland Browns were another team that was said to be interested in Smith at one point, but nothing ever came of it. The former West Virginia star’s four seasons with the Jets were a disaster, and he is also coming off a torn ACL that he suffered during the 2016 season.
If you want to know more about Smith’s reputation among those who covered him for four years, just read the way a Jets reporter eviscerated him earlier in the week. He’s fortunate to have landed a job even as a backup.
