"Hearing from several different people over last few days that Alex Smith is having devastating complications from his broken leg surgery battling infection. Supposedly he's had multiple surgeries to try to combat infection. Chances of him playing again in real jeaopardy."

Wow, so it looks like Alex really may be done.

I hope the guy can walk right again much less play football. what a horrible situation.

That really sucks, it was widely assumed everything would go to plan and he'd be back next year. Sounds like we should begin prepping for the worst-case scenario, which is him retiring and our cap being fucked for next year at least.

Alex seems like a stand up guy, I bet he would consider helping the organization somehow on that. He's made millions in his career, I Doubt he is really in need of 41M but then again money talks.

As I understand it, there really isn't anything he can do about it. Best thing he can do is wait till June 1st to retire (or we cut him as a Post Jun1st cut).

The NFLPA is not going to let a player give back guaranteed money that would be a ludicrous position for them to allow it in any circumstance. If anything they want all contracts guaranteed.

Well hopefully he decides to wait then. I guess we will see
