The Jets have benched quarterback Geno Smith after four drives Sunday, turning to backup Michael Vick late in the first quarter of the team's Week 8 matchup with the Bills.
Smith began the game by going 1 for 2 for four yards on the first drive, and the Jets had to punt the ball after a three-and-out. He then fell apart, throwing interceptions on three successive drives, the last of which set the Bills up on the Jets' one-yard line. Barring an injury to Vick, Smith's day is poised to end with five yards on 2-of-8 passing with no touchdowns and the three picks.
Vick has seen extensive work in just one game this year, going 8 for 19 for just 47 yards in the team's 31-0 loss to San Diego in Week 5.
