  "account": "EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) — New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith was being assessed for a concussion following a significant hit just before halftime, while rookie Cade Klubnik took to the field under center for the third quarter to make his NFL debut. The New York Jets, who had been trailing 107-9 in the last two minutes of the first half under coach Aaron Glenn, faced a promising drive just before halftime. However, Smith's attempt to throw a jump pass toward the end zone fell incomplete. Terrel Bernard collided with Smith, causing Smith to hit the ground briefly and receive medical attention before being taken to the injury tent. With Smith out of the game, Glenn opted for a 27-yard field goal from Jason Sanders to narrow the gap to 10-6. Klubnik, a fourth-round pick from Clemson and the backup to Smith, garnered the position. The Jets also have Will Levis available on their practice squad. Smith had completed 9 of 16 passes for 113 yards against the Bills before exiting the game.",
