FantasyPros Articles on Geno Smith

Smith's blitz efficiency and Lions' weak pass defense support QB2 with QB1 upside.

QB23 through two games but could change this week. Ranked 15th in yards per attempt, 16th in passing success rate, and sixth in catchable target rate among 28 qualifying passers, but has eighth-lowest aDOT and tenth-lowest hero throw rate, operating as a point guard. Strong against the blitz (fourth-best in yards per attempt, fifth in passing success rate as a Jet). Lions' pass defense allows eighth-highest passing success rate and 11th-most EPA per dropback. Smith is a strong QB2 this week who could surprise with fringe QB1 production.
