NY Jets Geno Smith Benched Over Gone Girl???
Obviously, the hottest ticket in town was Ben Affleck thriller Gone Girl, but a certain NY Jets may be in trouble for rushing out to the movie, Geno Smith Benched Over Gone Girl!
CelebNMusic247.com has heard about this crazy story, but apparently Jets quarterback Geno Smith mised a critical team meeting before the team’s game Sunday against the Chargers in San Diego.
Smith played poorly in the first two quarters, the Jets fell behind 21-0 and the young quarterback was benched at halftime.
“How can that happen?” wondered host Mike Greenberg on Monday’s ESPN’s “Mike and Mike” radio show. “What, did ‘Gone Girl’ go later than expected?”
Smith didn’t say whether he liked the movie or much else after the game. But he and his teammates got “messed up” because of the three-hour difference between Eastern and Pacific time, an insider told ESPN.
The choice of movie over meeting – and his lackluster play – isn’t going to cost him his job. Head coach Rex Ryan said that he’d be back in the lineup for next Sunday’s game against the Denver Broncos.
