Jets’ Geno Smith under active investigation in Florida for alleged assault at his home: police

Geno Smith is under investigation by authorities in Florida for an alleged assault.

A woman claimed on Instagram that the New York Jets quarterback "beat my a-- cause he HATES taking care of his special needs kid and can't be left alone with him because hed (sic) rather watch s*x online and play Call of Duty."

The California Post and ESPN reported that cops were called to Smith's home in Davie, Florida, on Sunday, but no arrests were made.

However, ESPN reported Tuesday morning, and Fox News Digital confirmed, that a review of the case warranted further investigation, and it is now an active case.

No additional information was made available. The Jets did not respond to emails from Fox News Digital.

Smith is slated to begin his second stint with the Jets, who drafted him in the second round of the 2013 NFL Draft, later this year. The Jets acquired him from the Las Vegas Raiders, who used the No. 1 pick to select Fernando Mendoza.

This will also mark Smith's third time calling MetLife Stadium home, as he signed with the New York Giants after his first stint with Gang Green.

Smith backed up Russell Wilson in Seattle for two seasons and filled in quite nicely, going .500 in each of his three seasons as the starter, but the Seahawks sent him to the Raiders and brought in Sam Darnold, one of several moves that helped them win the Super Bowl this past February.

Smith led the NFL with 17 interceptions last year, and with the No. 1 overall pick, Smith's stint with Vegas was understandably short-lived. But with the Jets owning the No. 2 pick in a weak quarterback class, they opted for the veteran market after Justin Fields did not pan out.

Jets head coach Aaron Glenn boldly claimed that Smith would "lead us to the promised land." The Jets won just three games last season and have not reached the postseason since 2010.
