The Facts: Smith may not be back with the Jets for a fifth season, but a return to MetLife Stadium may not be out of the cards. Art Stapleton of The Record was the first to report that Smith is visiting with the Giants on Saturday.
Diehards Line:It’s the first reported visit for Smith since free agency opened on Thursday afternoon. As PFT notes, Smith isn’t going to supplant Eli Manning, but the Giants could throw him into the mix with Ryan Nassib and Josh Johnson to serve as Manning’s backup for the 2017 season. Neither of those backups saw any action last season and Manning hasn’t missed a start since taking over the job during his rookie year in 2004.
