He may not play again but man is he rich.

Had a friend younger than me that died because they couldn't get what started as a minor infection under control. She was at one of the best hospitals in the area.

This shit could cost him his leg, or his life.

Alex Smith has a guaranteed salary of $71 million. That should buy the best doctors on the planet. Best Wishes to Alex Smith and his recovery.

Not sure what "partial reconstruction" of the leg is, but doesn't sound great.

I hope Alex makes a speedy and full recovery, a great dude for sure.

hospitals are giant germ factories.

sucks

Humans are germ factories. There are more bacteria in and on your body than human cells.

I now feel like I should go take another shower, or ten. Thanks! :-)

The good news is that many of them actually help you.

He just needs to concentrate on getting well. He is well enough off he could comfortably retire. Hoping for good health for him, from here on out

This is very sad. Alex is by all accounts a great guy. Has a foundation to get kids off to college back in his home town of San Diego, and was a good team mate and mentor during his time here in KC. I don't know if he'll ever play again, but I hope they can heal him to the point where he can walk and enjoy raising his kids pain free. I hope he has a great life, and that being a football player will be just one chapter of it.
