Nov 24, 2020 Alex Smith on Nov. 10 in McLean, Virginia Credit: Bryan Derballa Now Smith — who was named the team’s starting quarterback on November 15 — is on a quest to spread the message about what he calls.
Coming into this year, I think we could all agree that should Washington quarterback even step onto a football field during a game once again in his career, it would be an absolutely massive victory, and pretty much seal his victory in the race for NFL Comeback Player of the Year.
Well, not only did Smith play a single down, but he stood in as the QB for Washington for two full quarters against the Los Angeles Rams earlier this year, going 9-for-17 for 37 yards in the loss, while taking a total of six sacks. Luckily, the stats are far and away from what anyone was paying attention to, just happy with the fact that Smith could finally cap off his long and arduous comeback after a gruesome leg injury threatened both his career and his life.
- Alex Smith has been in the league since 2005, yet he only has 2 playoff wins. Decent game manager, but nowhere near an elite QB. It’s a QB league, and the elite QB’s win the vast majority of.
- After 17 surgeries, enduring a severe life-threatening infection and considering the possibility of amputation, Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith still harbors hopes of returning to the.
So now that Smith can successfully look back and know that he achieved what nobody ever thought he would, where does he go from here?
Alex Smith Injury
“Those are conversations for an offseason,” Smith said, via NBC Sports Washington. “For me, I love lacing up my cleats every single day. I love throwing the helmet on every single day. I’m having an amazing time. There’s a long time I didn’t think this was ever going to be remotely possible. I love going out there and competing and so for me about moving forward and getting better and getting ready to beat the Giants.”
Though Washington still has Dwayne Haskins on the roster, it is Smith who holds the QB2 spot, and should Kyle Allen be unable to play, No. 11 will be the one who takes the field. Whether or not he will try to earn a starting spot somewhere, or continue his role as a backup with Washington in the years to come is unclear, but that’s not something that Smith is worried about right now.

“I know you don’t want to hear that but certainly, there’s so much time in the offseason to obviously reflect and make those kinds of decisions and you leave that for that kind of time.”
