News: 2 days agoSmith completed 18 of 32 passes for 165 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Sunday's 35-12 loss to the Chiefs. He also rushed once for eight yards.

Spin: Smith struggled in the absence of top wide receiver Garrett Wilson (concussion), as the Jets made four field goals in the first half before getting blanked in the second half. The veteran QB posted his second-lowest total of the season for passing yards and was held without a touchdown for the first time since Week 1. Smith could be busy in Week 10 with the 2-7 Jets likely to be forced into a pass-heavy game plan if they fall behind against the Bills.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Smith was traded to the Jets following an unsuccessful one-year stint in Las Vegas. Smith, who began his career as a second-round pick with the Jets in 2013, is in line to start, though he's a long shot for consistent fantasy production. Smith peaked with a ninth-place finish in fantasy points per game with Seattle in 2022, but he has finished no better than 16th over the past three seasons. He paced the NFL in both interceptions and sacks in 2025 after finishing third in both categories in 2024 and is no longer much of a factor with his legs. The 35-year-old might bring some stability to the fantasy outlook of the team's pass catchers, but we shouldn't expect much more than that. Consider Smith only in superflex formats.
