Alex Smith: "I think [the Chiefs] are only committed to me through this year"

Spoiler!

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- In his first public comments since the Kansas City Chiefs traded up in the first round to select Texas Tech's Patrick Mahomes II, Alex Smith acknowledged Wednesday that his time as Kansas City's starter might soon be finished.

The Chiefs view Mahomes as the eventual replacement for Smith, who has two seasons left on his contract.

"I think [the Chiefs are] committed to me [only] through this year,'' Smith said. "That's just the nature of it. If you don't go out there and perform, I mean, coach [Andy] Reid and [quarterbacks coach Matt Nagy] are very honest. You've got to go out there and do your deal. We all have to.

"Whether or not we drafted Patrick, it doesn't change that, right? If you're not good enough and didn't get it done, you're not going to be around long. That's just our culture. I know it. That's the nature of the position.''

Smith went through a similar situation earlier in his career when he was with the San Francisco 49ers. The 49ers drafted Colin Kaepernick in the second round in 2011. Midway through the following season, Kaepernick replaced Smith as San Francisco's starting quarterback, and Smith was traded to the Chiefs after the end of the season.


Quarterback Alex Smith has two seasons left on his contract but acknowledged Wednesday in his first public comments since the Chiefs drafted Patrick Mahomes II that his time in Kansas City might soon be over.

"There is a little similarity,'' said Smith, who turned 33 earlier this month. "I'm an older quarterback and they drafted a kid that's coming in young and they're looking to develop.''

One major difference is that Reid and the general manager who brought him to the Chiefs, John Dorsey, are still in place. The coach and general manager who drafted him with the 49ers were long gone by the time San Francisco brought in Kaepernick.

"This is a completely different coaching staff and a completely different team,'' Smith said. "I think I'm a much different player.


"In that sense it's very different. They did bring me here and I've been here four years. I'm in my fifth year now. It was different there. Those were still new faces, so to speak, and I wasn't necessarily their guy or anything like that.''

Still, the addition of Mahomes represents the first legitimate threat to Smith's starting job in Kansas City. Reid and Dorsey have said Mahomes is some time away from being ready to play, and that they are committed to Smith for the interim.

"I've been through it,'' Smith said. "I'm in a different place than the last time I kind of dealt with something like this [but] I get it, right? If any of us were the GM, this in my opinion might be the most important position in all of sports. You'd be crazy not to be stockpiling talent.

"So I get it, going into year 13. You understand it. At the same time it doesn't change my focus, right? I still feel I've got a lot of years left in me. I still feel like I'm getting better, to be honest with you.''

So there's that.

Will you call Smith "cupcake" when he's lying on the turf with his brains coming out of his helmet?
Which sad-assed loser franchise will Alex be sold off to next? Can you believe there are clubs desperate enough to actually want that trash on their roster?

Perhaps those GM's should stroll over to CP and take a look at what kind of sad, social reeruns Smith seems to attract.

You know, weigh the good and the bad. And is it worth it?

Fuuuuuuuu******* no.

If you learned anything from history on this site it's that I'm right far more times than I'm ever wrong. I had better deductive and reasoning skills as a third grader than you exhibit in your current state.

All we've learned is that you prefer Smith's balls sweaty, fresh off the field when you gargle them.
We've also learned that Alex Smith has the worst fans in the entire NFL, real pieces of shit that no amount of psychotherapy can cure.
Go leach on someone else's fan base, and take that shitty game manager with you.

You really called it in regards to these clowns.

I'm very sorry that your franchise had to suffer these fools, but I'm even sorrier that the Chiefs had to be dumb enough to take them in.

These are stray dogs that need to go to the kill shelter.

We learned that you are a scumbag that had to have mods remove your sociopathic comments just a couple months ago. You're an embarrassment, sorry you weren't blessed with intellect or skill.

Only Baby Lee could find solace and companionship with a complete Smith loser like Tigger and Sandy.

The Three of CP idiocy.

Oh, you're keeping it up bandwagon bitch?

Why don't you quit on the team again, it's been nearly a few months.

And I'm not finding companionship with anything, just busting on your lie of being a Chiefs fan.

And you're still here and a better man is not.

A damned shame.

You know why they have to publicly defend him? Because they don't want him to get his feelings hurt.
