New York Jets quarterback Geno Smith is expected to get more reps than Michael Vick, who is signed to give the second-year competition at training camp.

Offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg said he's looking forward to a fierce competition between the young and veteran quarterback, but the team would just benefit from it in the end of the day.

"I think this thing will work beautifully," Mornhinweg said Tuesday, speaking to reporters for the first time since Vick signed last month, according to ESPN. "I expect Geno to progress at a high rate with Mike's help. It's just that simple."

"We're going to structure it a certain way. One thing I want to make sure of is that nothing impedes the young quarterback's progression. I'm talking about Geno. He progressed beautifully, and I'm talking the last quarter of the season. He played at a high level. "

Mornhinweg confirmed that Smith will get most of the first-team reps, though Vick has the ability to assume the starting role if Geno suffers another injury and his performance takes a step back.

"He's 33 years old and he's still got it," Mornhinweg said. "I look at him as a young 33; he's still got it. He's going to compete hard, he's going to push, he's going to make Geno and the rest of the quarterbacks the very best they can be. When he's called upon to play, I've got great confidence in Mike."
