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.
Mooby we typically agree on plenty...AS needs to hang it up. The image of his leg...no way should he get back on the field again.
I gotta feeling there is another role on the team or org for Smith. He isn’t going far.

Alex Smith is one tough mf...
Be glad he is not Tiger Woods throwing out one white girl after another after tiger is done with them.... oj Simpson objects. Can we use and abuse white girls in here?
Can we get a hell yah yeah or yah?
You're gonna set the record for fewest posts before getting banned. You join a group, you should keep a low profile, not spout obnoxious bullshit. It's disrespectful to everyone here.

I wouldn't blame him if he did hang 'em up, but the man just spent almost 2 years coming back from a wound comparable to a combat zone injury. You think he's gonna settle for getting a doctor's clearance? Nah. He made it this far, obviously his doctors have said he has no physical setbacks and is back to pre-injury form, once he gets team clearance he's gonna want to prove he can go out on his own terms. Obviously it won't happen with us but you know there will be some team out there willing to let him fight for a job. And if nobody wants to I'm sure he'd settle for sticking out with Rivera and being Haskins' backup.

Do I win a prize for this prediction?

Let the man complete his journey, Jesus Christ. Calling for him to retire now is brainless. Why would you work so hard to return only to retire now? Money, sure. But now that you’re possibly on the precipice of making the most improbable comeback of all time, NOW you’re going to step away from the game you loved as a kid, at a time when you maybe have 3 years remaining in the game anyway?
Let the doctors look at him and let him take the next step accordingly. Christ, some of you guys aren’t even suited to speak at a 5th grade career day.

Smith wants to play. If he is cleared then put him out there in practice. If he can not move around and protect himself then he and the coaches will know. Let it play itself out.

Alex Smith has more than earned the right to go out in whatever way he wants to. If he wants to play, and team doctors say he's cleared, then he is on the team. There is no way AS on the roster is anything other than a positive.

There should be some special kind of protection for the leg,maybe a special pad lined with steel so when he does get hit hopefully he can walk back to the huddle.
Just getting to this point is a major win for him. I still can't see him ever playing again though.
