Covitz:Alex Smith will play entire first half of Sunday’s preseason game

[keg in kc]

My first thought after the initial preseason game was that they're going to try to slip Murray through to the practice squad, and not show him at all during the preseason. And maybe, although less likely I think, try to showcase Daniel for a trade. We'll see how it plays out the next couple of weeks. If Murray's only in for the last two minutes again on Saturday, just handing the ball off, or doesn't play at all, then I'm gonna consider that in support of my little theory.
