Jets quarterback Geno Smith Had His Jaw Broken By (now former) Jets linebacker.
Geno Smith's tumultuous career with the New York Jets has hit another snag, as the quarterback has suffered a broken jaw after a locker room fight with linebacker IK Enemkpali. The injury will sideline him for six to 10 weeks, per Brian Costello of the New York Post.
the heart of the dispute between former Jets LB IK Enemkpali and quarterback Geno Smith is $600 that Enemkpali believed Smith owed him, per league sources. Enemkpali purchased a plane ticket for Smith to attend his July 11 football camp at Pfugerville High School in Pfugerville, Texas. However, days before the camp, a person close to Smith was killed in a motorcycle accident in Miami and Smith did not attend Enemkpali’s camp, per sources. After Smith did not attend, Enemkpali demanded that the Jets’ quarterback refund him the $600 he allegedly used to purchase a plane ticket. Smith told Enemkpali he would reimburse him the money, but he did not. Enkempali confronted Smith today about the money and the confrontation ended in a punch and broken jaw.
In one hand I have $600 and the respect of keeping it real. In the other I have your career. Hmm....
Enemkpali is an idiot. Thank God I'm a Giants fan cause being a Jets fan would of killed me years ago.
Why the leader of a football team isn't paying people back is beyond me either. He's supposed to help build locker room moral. So yeah, Enemkpali is stupid for hitting Geno, but Geno getting into fights with his teammates is clown shoes as well.
