Mandatory Credit: John Jones-Imagn Images New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith will not be charged for a June incident in which a woman accused him of battery, the Davie, Fla., police department said Tuesday. The investigation is no longer active.
On June 21, a woman called 911, claiming to have been assaulted by Smith at his home. The woman, who identified herself as his ex-girlfriend, later posted a video of the encounter on social media. The video did not include evidence of an assault.
No one was arrested or detained at the scene, though the woman was trespassed from Smith's home.
The official report cited a lack of witnesses and surveillance footage to corroborate the allegations, and neither Smith nor the woman provided requested follow-up statements to the police. That left the responding officer "unable to determine the primary aggressor in the physical altercation," according to the report.
"No further investigative steps can be reasonably taken with the information presently available," read the supplemental case report obtained by ESPN. "Any future investigative action is contingent on additional information or evidence being brought forward."
The original incident report referenced two scratches to the right side of Smith's face and a knot on the back of his head. It also detailed a small cut on the woman's right hand and a bruise on her left arm.
The woman uploaded a video to Instagram accusing Smith of beating her and neglecting his 6-year-old son. The boy's mother, a different woman, later defended Smith in her own Instagram video.
Smith has not commented publicly on the incident; neither have the Jets. The NFL could still discipline the 35-year-old if it determines he violated the league's personal conduct policy.
"We are aware of the matter, and the club has been in contact with the league," an NFL spokesman said in a statement.
Smith, who played for the Jets from 2013-16, was reacquired by the club in a trade with the Las Vegas Raiders in March.
