Geno Smith practiced in full on Wednesday for the first time since breaking his jaw and could be active for the New York Jets' Week 3 game.

On Tuesday, Todd Bowles announced Ryan Fitzpatrick will remain the starter once Smith does return, so he won't assume his starting role -- but his return is a good sign. He's been limited since IK Enemkpali broke his jaw with a punch back in August.

Todd Bowles announced at his press conference on Wednesday that either Smith or Bryce Petty will be the No. 2 quarterback on Sunday, though it's yet to be determined. With Fitzpatrick as the starter -- and playing well -- the Jets will likely still carry three quarterbacks on the active roster.

This season, Fitzpatrick has led the Jets to a 2-0 record and thrown for 423 yards, four touchdowns and two interceptions.
