During this Wednesday’s episode of “First Take,” Smith made the argument that Oregon quarterback Dante Moore should stay in school for another year so he can avoid being drafted by the New York Jets. They currently own the No. 2 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.

“I’d go back to college before I play for the Jets. They are a football atrocity. They are awful,” Smith said. “I mean, they are a straight garbage. I am a Black man that is consistently pushing for opportunities for Black coaches throughout the years. It has gotten a lot better than it was in the past. It hurts me to say this, but ain’t no way in hell Aaron Glenn should still be the head coach of the New York Jets. They were horrible.”

Jets wide receiver Garrett Wilson didn’t appreciate Smith’s remarks on national television this Wednesday. That being said, he fired back at the “First Take” personality on social media.

“Damn, u gotta be a real sell out n above all a square to be on ESPN nowadays,” Wilson wrote on the platform formerly known as Twitter. “Used to love that show.”
