There is virtually no way to justify Geno Smith having his jaw shattered by a teammate over a minor monetary dispute, but plenty of people believe the New York Jets quarterback was hardly an innocent bystander.
On Wednesday morning, ESPN insider and former NFL safety Ryan Clark appeared on “Mike and Mike in the Morning” and shared what he heard from multiple players who were inside the locker room when I.K. Enemkpali punched Smith. As was previously reported, Smith put his finger in Enemkpali’s face. He apparently also challenged the second-year linebacker.
“My report says Geno put his finger in his face and told the guy, ‘Well, you’re not going to do anything about it,” Smith said, as transcribed by Jake O’Donnell of SportsGrid.
