Fitzpatrick to remain Jets' starting QB, says Bowles
- October 21, 2016
Is there any way for Smith to salvage his professional career? He pulled Fitzpatrick midway through the fourth quarter of the blowout, inserting Smith, whose only series ended with an interception. Drafted in the second round, Smith has been nothing but a bust for the Jets .
