Alex Smith Ruled Out Against Seattle
4 years agoThe Washington Football Team has ruled out quarterback Alex Smith (calf) for Week 15 against the Seahawks. Dwayne Haskins, who opened the year as the starter under center, will be back in this Sunday. Washington was holding out hope that the veteran Smith could play this weekend despite not really practicing at all this week, but they'll take the cautious approach with a player that nearly lost that same leg two years ago after a gruesome break. Smith's absence will be a downgrade for all of Washington's skill players, as he had turned them into a top-10 offense in his five games started. Seattle's defense will also become a streaming option. Haskins should be looked at as a low-end QB2 for those in superflex leagues.
