Ted will step in there and take snaps before that happens.
I don't think Smith plays this year.
His last suspension was for 9 games.
The Patriots have cut QB Matt Flynn per source.

They were just using him, picking his brain for the first pre-season game. Shame on you, Belicheck, shame.
Matt Flynn, who was cut by Pats, has made $18 million throughout his NFL career. He has thrown for 17 TD's.
— Darren Rovell (@darrenrovell) August 10, 2015
Tommy wanted a deflated ball, perhaps Matt, like Aaron wanted a inflated ball....something had to give.
How many of those 17 TD's were in that one game?
SIX

No defense. Flynn had to make it 6 just to win that one.
Great player. Always killed the Packers. Chuck could never corral him.
#Ravens WR Steve Smith just said at his press conference that he’ll retire after this season, that it’s time.

Ian Rapaport on NFLN is reporting that Flynn has a hamstring issue and that the Pats plan to bring him back once he's ready to play again.
They weren't going to play Brady much (if at all) this week and needed another (healthy) QB for the game.
Steelers kicker Shaun Suisham tore his ACL, per @pittsburghpg. Leaves Pittsburgh searching for a new kicker to do his job in tough venue.

Geno Smith has a broken jaw resulting from a fight with IK Enemkpali this morning, Todd Bowles told reporters. Enemkpali released.
— Mike Garafolo (@MikeGarafolo) August 11, 2015
From what I was told, Smith put his finger in Enemkpali's face during an argument and that's what led to the punch.
— Mike Garafolo (@MikeGarafolo) August 11, 2015
Wow: Jets HC Todd Bowles said QB Geno's Smith sucker punched in locker room by IK Enemkpali. Geno now out 6-10 weeks.

Immediately thought the same thing. Best way to scuttle a QB controversy is to break it's jaw.

How do ass clowns like Cris Carter stay employed?
Geno Smith: “Ikemefuna Enemkpali”
Jets Medical Staff: “Geno, we can’t understand you with your jaw wired shut.”
h/t Deadspin.

Well, at least he showered.

For some reason, bigger ass clowns think he is relevant.
The latest word is that Geno threw the first punch, but it landed a few yards short.
There are times when Twitter is great to have around...

QB's are getting the living **** beat out of themselves for a lack of leadership guys. Isn't Jay number 1 on the list of QB's that shouldn't loiter around a locker room 2 seconds more than need be?
The innerwebs are splintered over what Geno did and what he should have done. Two camps have started forming.
"Have to stand up to that guy" vs. "You have to walk away from a nobody like that"
In the case of Geno, both are kind of correct.
If this exact same scenario plays out in GB, or New England, or Detroit, or Dallas. A second year journeyman get's into the grill of the QB, that QB is walking away and that journeyman nobody is dealing with the baddest ass on the OL if he decides he wants to go down that road. He won't.
The real problem here is Geno didn't really know with 100% certainty if he stood down anyone would have his back. He kind of had to stand in there on his own. Kind of admirable, but a reminder of Cam yesterday. Just not a lot of smarts.
Yeah I don’t blame Geno. In hindsight he should have just paid the $600 but that’s beside the point. Geno can’t stand down in front of his team, inside his locker room. He may suck but he’s still a starting QB fighting for his job.
This other dude screwed up big time though. Granted he didn’t seem like he was that good anyways so might have been cut and never played again, but he can kiss any shot of an NFL career goodbye. Hope the $600 was worth it. Idiot.
So that means that the only team from the AFC East with a QB they expected to open the season with on week one is Miami - who will start Tannehill (spell?).

Well, he did draft him last year.
Hope his locker is next to Richie Incognito's.

Says a lot about the league that a guy who assaulted a teammate to the point of breaking his jaw can find work the next day.
— Tom Crabtree (@itsCrab) August 12, 2015
Rex Ryan thinks a guy who was cut yesterday for punching a teammate in the face is a good fit for his team and locker room today.

Sure. Doesn't mean he deserved a broken jaw. Also says a lot about IK that he'd punch a teammate in the face. https://t.co/lQLw1IzlM2
