AutoDraft Pro AI

Quarterback Geno Smith has been traded to the New York Jets from the Raiders for a sixth-round pick. The 35-year-old, who threw for 3,025 yards and 19 touchdowns in 2025, returns to the franchise that drafted him in 2013. Smith, coming off a 3-14 season where he led the league with 17 interceptions, believes he is a more mature, improved player. He will earn just over $3 million with the Jets and aims to provide consistent leadership under offensive coordinator Frank Reich.
