With Geno Smith out after a teammate's punch broke his jaw, the New York Jets have a temporary vacancy at the quarterback position. It seems the favorite is NFL veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick, a perfectly fine NFL quarterback who has never played in a playoff game.

There's another option on the roster who might be more appealing to Jets fans -- rookie quarterback Bryce Petty.

A two-time All-American, Petty had a 21-4 record in college and led Baylor to two consecutive Big 12 championships. Baylor had last won consecutive conference championships in 1915-16.

He has a higher vertical leap than pre-draft Blake Griffin and Russell Westbrook:

He uses that to do things like this:

And he can pass, too! His 1.18-percent career interception rate at Baylor is an NCAA record, and he set 31 school records despite following Heisman winner Robert Griffin III.

Face it, Jets: You're probably not winning that many games this season. Start Bryce Petty and have some fun -- Baylor did!
