We’re only in OTA season, yet the NFL has its first feel-good moment of 2019.
Alex Smith dropped in on his Washington teammates Thursday, and the former 49er looked glad to be there.
Last time we saw him on a football field, Smith was being carted off with a gruesome injury to his right leg. Sacked by the Texans J.J. Watt, Smith’s fibula and tibia were snapped. Eerily, the injury occurred on the 20th anniversary of a similarly devastating injury to Washington quarterback Joe Theismann.
Aside from lobbing a football or two, Smith did not practice.
