Why the Odds Changed
Geno Smith is expected to open the 2026 NFL season as the New York Jets’ starting quarterback.
Recent Developments
Geno Smith is on track to be the New York Jets’ Week 1 starting quarterback for the 2026 NFL season, positioning the veteran passer for a prominent role in the team’s latest attempt to stabilize its offense. The Jets are expected to make their starter official ahead of their season opener, with Smith set to take the first snaps under center.
Smith’s anticipated return to a leading role would bring experience and familiarity to a franchise that has cycled through quarterbacks in recent years. His command of the huddle and proven ability to manage an NFL offense are expected to be key factors as New York prepares for its opening matchup.
The decision would mark a notable chapter for both Smith and the Jets, who originally drafted him in 2013. With the regular season approaching, the team’s focus is expected to shift toward building continuity around Smith and establishing an offensive rhythm early in the campaign.
