Geno Smith is under investigation by Florida authorities for an alleged assault.
One woman claimed on Instagram that the New York Jets quarterback “beat my ass because he HATES taking care of his son with special needs and can’t be left alone with him because he’d rather watch sex online and play Call of Duty.”
The California Post and ESPN reported that police were called to Smith’s home in Davie, Florida, on Sunday, but no arrests were made.

Smith led the NFL with 17 interceptions last year, and with the first overall pick, Smith’s time with Vegas was understandably short-lived. But because the Jets own the No. 2 pick in a weak quarterback class, they turned to the veteran market after Justin Fields failed.
