Michael Vick acknowledged that Geno Smith is the starting quarterback of the New York Jets.

"Geno's the starting quarterback for that football team," Vick said. "Ultimately our goal is to try to help Geno become the best quarterback that he can be.

"Myself and [Matt Simms] are all trying to put him in a position where he can get better from Year 1 to Year 2."

When Vick signed with the Jets in March, he expressed a desire to start despite acknowledging that his ultimate job was to help Smith improve.
