Geno Smith: Brandon Marshall a 'QB's best friend'

Geno Smith seems to be enjoying his new wide receiver.

The Jets quarterback spoke to the team's website over the weekend and called Brandon Marshall, who the Jets acquired in March, "a quarterbacks's best friend."

Smith also added that "for one, he's a veteran guy. He understands the game on and off the field. He's a beast of a player. You can't say enough good things about him."

Marshall spent three seasons in Chicago, totaling 279 receptions, 3,524 yards and 31 touchdowns. His reunion with Jay Cutler from their time in Denver started off well, but the relationship soured as the Bears struggled on the field, and Marshall had his own issues off it as well.
