Alex Smith’s Amazing Comeback(?)

Just watched the E60 with my kids this week...I had no idea his leg was in THAT condition during the surgeries. It's a miracle they were able to save it. There was no skin from knee to ankle remaining.

Amazing story. Yes it's gross to look at, but these are the types of lessons and role models kids should be exposed to, the perseverance he has is amazing. They've watched me fight through surgeries and not walking many times, but man...my problems look like a picnic compared to Alex's leg.

Simply unbelievable. I felt like many people that his injury would certainly be career ending. So does Alex Smith start this year at some point? Or do we try and trade him now that he will be able to be signed elsewhere?

I dont think anyone is going to trade for him. I also dont think we should trade him. He is one of three quarterbacks on the roster and if he can actually help that is great. It isn’t like he had a head injury and needs to think about his future. He had an infection which isn’t going to necessarily come back if he gets hurt again. Amazing that he is back and cleared for action. Great story.

Amazing that he is back and cleared for action. Great story.Agreed. Truly incredible he came back. He still has to be cleared by the NFL/team. Think it's Haskins job for sure though with a fairly short leash. Allen will be on his heels. Either way, this is nothing but a good thing and I'm very happy for Alex Smith.

I didn't think this day would actually happen but kudos to Smith for what no doubt has been one of the hardest road to recoveries ever. Also a testimony for the unbelievable advances in modern medicine. I hope once he gets confirmed to practice he'll be another asset to Haskins and this team. And if he wants another shot at a starting job then I would be happy to trade him to the team of his choosing.

Yes, great job AS...now retire

I say let him have a symbolical snap and be a mentor to Haskins, but yeah no way I'd root for him playing again. The fact that he got back here is amazing enough.

Is anybody factoring in how Alex Smith feels about it? You think he worked his ass off just for the symbolic nature and the platitudes? I'm thinking he came all the way back, and once he gets cleared by the team he's gonna wanna fight for a starting job with another team. We'll probably oblige him in helping him go to the team of his choosing if that's the case. Just sucks because I liked having him here as a mentor to Haskins.

From where I stand I just wish he'd enjoy being alive and well and don't risk another major injury at a time of his career where he's not going to suddenly become a Hall of Famer.
