Former Jets Teammates React to Brad Smith Signing with Bills

Brad Smith made it official on Thursday signing with division rival the Buffalo Bills.  There were rumors floating around that he wasn’t gong to be a Jet and today it proved correct.  Let’ s put it this way, the Jets didn’t even make an attempt to sign him! 

I think this is going to be a big loss for the Jets as he was a fan favorite but also very dynamic “Triple Threat” on the field.Brad’s former teammates were on twitter reacting to the news:

There goes the first Twitter account casualty.  @RealBradSmith JUST joined twitter this offseason, so from a twitter perspective, we hardly knew ya!  Maybe the writing was on the wall when he took this photo-shoot for his web site clearly NOT wearing any green.

I understand the business side, and I’m glad that Brad got a big pay day today.  He deserves it, but I’ll be rooting against you when you play the Jets naturally.
