Smith's 0 INTs and 70.8% completion rate lead Jets turnaround; challenged to increase air yards per attempt.

Through Weeks 1-2 of 2026, Smith has thrown 0 interceptions after leading the league with 17 INTs in 2025; Jets recorded 0 giveaways in first two games, first time in 55 years. Completion rate stands at 70.8%, highest for Jets since 2011 (previous high: 63.4% in 2024). However, air yards per attempt average only 5.8, tied with Daniel Jones for 28th in league. ESPN's Rich Cimini challenged Smith to 'open up the passing attack to maximize their skill position talent' heading into Week 3 matchup against Detroit's weak defense but loaded offense, suggesting aggressive deep-shot approach could elevate Jets' offensive ceiling in high-scoring game environment.
