The New York Jets have signed quarterback Geno Smith, their second-round draft pick, to a four-year contract that is worth about $5 million.
The New York Jets are bringing in a pair of wide receivers and a kicker for a look-see, according to multiple reports.
Smith told the Charleston (W. Va.) Gazette that he's "prepared" and "getting better daily" as training camp nears at SUNY Cortland, where the rookie will be competing with incumbent starter Mark Sanchez.
If Holmes is not ready to play when training camp opens, the Jets could place him on the physically unable to perform (PUP) list.
It would be a difficult decision for any coach, but Ryan seems to have a handle on it -- at least a better one than when he dealt with the quarterback situation during his rookie coaching season in 2009.

Wide receiver Stephen Hill predicts a postseason run for the Jets this year. "Oh yes, definitely," Hill told the NFL Network. "We will be in the playoffs, and deep in the playoffs."
Jerry Oppenheimer's "Crazy Rich: Power, Scandal and Tragedy Inside the Johnson & Johnson Dynasty" is set to come out next month, and the New York Post reported a harrowing story that will be featured in the book.
Smith seems concerned only with taking Sanchez's job. That will shake out in training camp, certainly. But even if he wins that competition, he must also worry about taking the locker room along with him.
Other Palestinian-American NFL players, include former LB Tarek Saleh, former QB Gibran Hamdan, and former DL Nader Abdallah.
"I look at Tebow, and he gets bashed because of his faith," Strawberry said. "Let 'em laugh. Let 'em talk. He's a greater man than anyone who might be greater than him as an athlete."
Idzik needs to have a short list of candidates to replace Ryan and his coaching staff. If you see six other teams hire their head coach before the Jets do next offseason, you'll know Idzik is not prepared.
While some have speculated it could be the first sign of tension between the two QBs, it could also merely be a case in which Smith opted to stay close to home where he has been working out all summer.
The day everybody knew was coming came Monday. Five-year extension, $43 million, with $15.6 million in guaranteed money for Victor Cruz.
The Jets aren't known for winning, but under Ryan they've done just enough of that to make themselves relevant
