Willie McGinest just won the award for hottest Geno Smith take
James Dator has been covering a wide range of sports for SB Nation for over a decade, with a special focus on the NFL.
This isn’t taken out of context or captured in a momentary lapse in judgement. Willie McGinest actually suggested the Jets should have signed IK Enemkpali to a contract EXTENSION for punching Geno Smith in the face. Here is the full quote -- bask in its stupidity.
“It has nothing to do with who’s soft or who’s not. If you’re a respected player in that locker room and other players respect you at a certain level -- Geno’s not a superstar, he’s not an elite quarterback, he’s not even good at this point. [...] I would have called him (Enemkpali) upstairs to give him a contract extension. I want guys like that on my team to go to war with.”
Face, meet palm.
