Alex Smith Wasn't A Part Of Washington's Plans
4 years agoWashington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith, who won Comeback Player of the Year in 2020 after returning from a gruesome leg injury two years prior, said that very few people in the organization "actually thought I could do this." "When I decided to come back, I definitely threw a wrench in the team's plan. They didn't see it, didn't want me there, didn't want me to be a part of it, didn't want me to be on the team, the roster, didn't want to give me a chance," Smith said. Although the veteran didn't light up the box scores, he went 5-1 in his six starts and helped Washington win the AFC East. It remains to be seen if Washington wants the 36-year-old back in 2021, but if Smith does return, he'll likely have to prove himself again in a competition with Kyle Allen and Taylor Heinicke. From a fantasy perspective, managers should look elsewhere when searching for their QB.
