Chiefs convinced Alex Smith will be starting quarterback in 2017
The Kansas City Chiefs are committed to quarterback Alex Smith as their 2017 starter, head coach Andy Reid said.
What It Means:
"Do I still think we can win with Alex?," Reid asked rhetorically. "Yeah, we were right there." Smith will almost certainly be back under center for a fifth season in Kansas City. Smith has made no progress as a Chief, stubbornly minding the store while trying to avoid mistakes at all costs. With Smith going on 33, the Chiefs at the very least need a plan-of-succession in mind.
Smith's game manager ways led him to a 0.14 Passing Net Expected Points per drop back, just above the league average of 0.12. This was 16th-best among 39 quarterbacks with at least 100 drop backs.
