New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith is wearing red glare-reducing contact lenses during training camp, including while speaking with reporters after practice. Multiple outlets describe the lenses as designed to reduce sun glare and improve visual comfort during outdoor workouts. Smith, 35, acquired by the Jets in the offseason from the Las Vegas Raiders, says the approach is not new for him. He indicates that the practice is something he has been doing, while at camp this time he appears with UV protection lenses that tint his eyes and stand out in photos and video from practices. The reports frame the contact lenses as a functional adjustment for bright conditions rather than a medical or performance-related announcement. Overall, the coverage agrees that Smith is using the red-tinted contacts at Jets camp and that he has used similar glare-reducing eyewear previously.
