Several months ago, it was easy to believe that Washington quarterback Alex Smith would never put on pads and step onto a football field again.
On Sunday, Smith is reportedly going to be removed from the PUP list and be placed on the active roster in Washington, according to ESPN’s John Keim.
After a gruesome leg injury held him out of over a year of play, and threatened not only his football career, but his life at points, Smith will now have a chance to play meaningful snaps in Washington’s practices.
At this point, just getting onto the active roster in Washington is more than you could have ever asked for from Smith, so anything he accomplishes from here on out is an absolute cherry on top.
The 36-year-old will compete with Dwayne Haskins and Kyle Allen for the starting job in the nation’s capital
