In light of the Geno Smith news, ex-Jets great Joe Namanth must’ve felt bad after criticizing him and sent him an apology on Twitter.
Although Jets quarterback is seeking a second opinion on his knee, he suffered a torn ACL. After exiting Sunday’s game against the Ravens, he noticed that Joe Namath was a little extra with the criticism. Here’s the tweet started it.
If you've got a right knee injury keeping you out of the game why are you standing on the sideline the entire 2nd half? How bad can it be?

Somebody tell Joe that the doctors have the final say on whether you can or cannot get back into the game…… and also that I love him!

Geno recently tweeted to his fans and Namath also tweeted his apology.
Thank you to all the fans, my family and friends for all the well wishes. I'll be back stronger, faster and smarter in no time. #Godspeed

My bad Geno. In the dark ages we players had the say. I hope you heal and play as long as you choose! Joe

That apology tweet might make him feel a little better about the whole situation.
