Alex Smith suffering serious complications.
 

[Bickel] 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.


This ****ing sucks.

That sucks.

Man that is horrible news. Thoughts and Prayers for the guy.

Hate hearing that

Holy damn. Alex is a good person. Hope he gets well and retires in good health.

Ugh. That's not good.

That's absolutely horrifying.

Damn. Hope he gets through this ok

That shit can get really wonky really fast.

We had some crazy shit come thru the Oral Surgery dep at the dental school when I was there.

Really sad to hear. He's a really good guy.

Compound fractures are a bitch for that very reason. I hadn't heard if the bone broke the skin but it sure sounds like it. Evidently that's incredibly common anytime there's an actual compound fracture and the bone is exposed to all the shit we have floating around in the air.

Football is a cruel mistress, man.

Awful to hear.

I know Gronk had some similar issues with his arm and they got that figured out

Damn. Hope he recovers fully.

He may not play again but man is he rich.
