Geno Smith returns to Jets, facing uncertain fantasy viability for 2026

Geno Smith is back with the New York Jets as their expected starting quarterback for the 2026 season. After a lackluster stint with the Las Vegas Raiders, where he averaged 11.6 fantasy points per game, questions remain about his draft value in fantasy leagues. Smith's previous success in Seattle included a standout season in 2022, but he struggled last season amid injuries and coaching disruptions. Despite the uncertainty, he will have an improved supporting cast, including Garrett Wilson and Breece Hall, as he seeks to regain his fantasy relevance. Many analysts are skeptical, projecting Smith as undraftable in traditional leagues, yet he may have a chance to emerge as a viable option in Superflex formats.
