Geno Smith won’t be taking the field for the Jets for at least six weeks after suffering a broken jaw.
Smith was involved in an altercation with then-teammate IK Enemkpali who apparently sucker punched him in the locker room and was released by the team shortly after. Ryan Fitzpatrick is expected to take over as starting quarterback.
While it’s an unfortunate situation for the Jets, Twitter predictably had some fun with the big news. Here are some of the hilarious reactions:

On the bright side this is one of the few times Geno Smith has been involved in a successful reception.
