The Geno Smith locker room brawl went down because the Jets QB was AWOL from an event, which pissed off his teammate ... TMZ Sports has learned.
Sources inside the Jets locker room tell us backup linebacker IK Enemkpali -- the puncher -- organized a youth football camp and charity in Texas last month. He invited Geno to attend -- even put his face on the flyer -- but for some reason Geno didn't make it.
We're told IK stepped to Geno to talk about it on Tuesday, but Geno told him to back off because he wasn't going to discuss it at that moment. Geno turned away, but IK stood his ground ... and socked Geno in the jaw.
One player told us, "He straight sucker punched him." As we reported, Jets brass immediately cut IK from the team ... and Geno's out for 6-10 weeks.
We've got a call in to Geno's reps ... so far, no word back.
