It was trending this way for most of the week, Alex Smith will miss another game as he deals with a calf strain to his surgically repaired leg. There was optimism earlier in the week that he could return after a week off, but that disappeared as the week went on. He practiced on Friday, but video from practice did not make it look like he was back to playing health. He was reportedly still feeling soreness, but Washington listed him as questionable and wanted to see how he felt on game day.
The decision has reportedly been made, and Smith will be inactive today.
