Alex Smith pumped for trade to Washington Redskins

Wiki Article

Alex Smith 'pumped' for trade to Washington Redskins Published: Feb 11, 2018 at 01:26 PM is despite playing at levels both times. But this weekend, he said he was "pumped" for the latest move. Perhaps it's because the quarterback's new team, the , don't have a young signal-caller waiting in the wings to take his position like the (Colin Kaepernick) and (Patrick Mahomes) did. Perhaps it's the new $94 million deal he agreed to after the trade was announced. Perhaps it's the prospect of playing for noted quarterback-friendly coach Jay Gruden. Whatever the reason, Smith sounded happy to have a new career opportunity about the trade that will send him from K.C. to D.C. when the Ryan Kesler Kids Jersey new league year begins next month. "Yeah, I'm jacked," Smith told Collins at this weekend's AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am golf tournament. "I'm pumped for the opportunity. A new challenge moving forward, I can't wait to get started. I know it's kind of, we're not there yet, we've got to wait for the league year to start, but I can't say how much I'm looking forward to it." Smith was traded from San Francisco to Kansas City after the 2012 season when the Niners opted to Paul Kariya Men Jersey make Kaepernick their quarterback of the future. Last month, it was revealed Smith would be traded once again, this time as the look to give their franchise keys to Mahomes. In Washington, there is no such QB of the future (though the do have the No. 13 overall pick in April's draft...), and Smith, at least for the foreseeable future, is finally being looked at as the face of an offense. For Smith, that appears to be a breath of fresh air. Despite dealing with Mahomes and his huge right arm bearing down on him on the Kevin Shattenkirk Men Jersey depth chart all season, Smith posted career highs in pa sing yards (4,042) and pa sing touchdowns (26). The hope in Washington, which gave up a third-round pick and up-and-coming cornerback , and is expected to walk away from QB in order to make the deal, is that Smith can improve on those numbers and lead the to the playoffs for the first time since the 2015 season. "I'm excited," Smith said. This article has been reproduced in a new format and may be mi sing content or contain faulty links. Please use the Contact Us link in our site footer to report an i sue.
