Behind by five during an opening half in which his opponents took many of the game’s signature plays for themselves, Geno Smith mastered the art of authoring the big-time comeback plays and, somehow, still not writing back. Deceptively speedy, Smith settled into 2022 Comeback Player of the Year form, navigating through a maze of six different Denver Broncos blitzers before working straight line speed and a quick juke to set his path for a 34-yard touchdown scramble. Cool and collected throughout the 26-20 win on Sept. 8, 2024, Smith was 18-of-25 for 171 yards and a passing touchdown, paired with four carries for 30 yards and a rushing score.
