Alex Smith breaks the bank.
 

Is this guy any good? Maybe KC should bring him in for a look if Mahomes doesn't work out: Per SI.COM

Washington Redskins quarterback Alex Smith signed a four-year, $94 million extension with the team last week, reports NFL.com.

Smith will make $40 million this upcoming season, which includes a $27 million signing bonus, according to the report.

The deal also includes $71 million in guarantees for injury, meaning Smith is under contract for five years and $111 million.

Smith made $10.8 million in base salary last season.

He was traded in January for cornerback Kendall Fuller and a 2018 third-round draft pick.

The 33-year-old Smith led the NFL in passer rating (104.7) this season and set career-highs in passing yards (4,042) and touchdowns (26) while throwing just five interceptions.

In 12 seasons, Smith has a 88-62-1 record as a starting quarterback.

WTF?

The guy got paid, can't fault him for that. :clap:

ROFL

WTF are the Redskins doing?

Something is broken when guys like this get paid this much. Not as embarrassingly desperate as the Keesum signing, but jeez...

Look at those greenbacks, he must be so awesome that anyone can vindicate how badass he is because of his signing bonus and overall take. I repeat ANYONE can make the case how excellent Alex is as a player and a person./sarcasm

Good for him. Wish him all the best.


(Just thankful the Chiefs weren’t the ones to hand out this silly contract. Not that there was any chance of that, but still. I would have given up on them forever. Sorry, Washington fans. I feel bad for y’all)

He just banks

WOW!

Alex Smith and Carson Palmer will have retired after making over $300 million and winning three playoff games combined. LMAO

Teams want to win and Smith is a winner.

I didn't think they'd lock him up for the whole deal but he's pretty expensive to cut until the final season. Even that final season he's still a 7 million dead cap hit

Congrats Alex, wish you luck


Thanks for helping return the Chiefs back to being a respectable franchise.

There were some dark years before the Andy Reid era

Don't just stand for the anthem Alex. Dry hunch that freedom air
