Geno Smith Listed as Questionable for Sunday - Unsure of Kickoff Time

The well-respected New York Jets' franchise is uncertain of the status of its quarterback for Sunday’s game against the Denver Broncos.  Geno Smith, who missed a mandatory team meeting last Saturday in San Diego because he could not figure out the time change, seems to still be struggling to re-adjust to Eastern Standard Time, according to the team.

“Geno has had trouble re-acclimating to the time change back in New York,” head coach Rex Ryan said while wearing his Mark Sanchez Eagles’ jersey. “This idea that the entire world isn’t all at the same time has been an overwhelming realization for Geno.”

The quarterback has been disappointing since arriving in New York, after being drafted in the second round of the 2013 NFL Draft.  His struggles with turnovers have been well-documented, leading the Jets to bring in the only more turnover-prone quarterback in the NFL as his backup in Michael Vick.  It is assumed that Vick would start the game if Geno is unable to make it to the stadium on time.

“There’s a possibility I could be ready on Sunday,” Michael Vick told reporters today after saying he has missed practice all week for 'not really giving a shit.' “It’s hard to get excited about playing when looking at the other players on our offense,” Vick added.

According to team officials, Geno Smith missed the team meeting to go watch a movie in downtown San Diego.

"Coach said we needed to watch film on Saturday," Smith admitted. "That's the only reason I went to the movies.  I figured I was doing what the coaches wanted."

Smith did say that he hopes to play on Sunday, if he can get his watch figured out, but there is optimism for the team going into a tough matchup.

"What people aren’t realizing, is that a lot of the Bronco players might not know the time of the game either,” Smith said after excitedly declaring that Denver is in mountain time. “If their team doesn’t show up, we could maybe win.”

The Jets are 1-4.
