Rex: Simms no threat to Geno as Jets starter

Jets coach Rex Ryan threw cold water on any thought that M🌞att Simms could replace Geno Smith at starting quarterback anytime soon.

Ryan responding to a questio✃n about an ESPN report and if Smith should struggle that Simms could replace him.

“I think there’s a lot of guys that like Simms,” Ryan said. “I don’t think there’s any doubt. But to say as our starting quarterback? I don’t see that. But again, I’m obviously n🐻ot saying that that couldn’t happen, or whatever, but we see Geno as our starting quarterback now and that’s how we see it.”

Simms won a roster spot with a strong training camp and preseas⛎on, beating out Greg McElroy for the third quarterback spot. With Mark Sanchez injured, Simms has become the No. 2 quarterback.
