Washington quarterback Alex Smith has gone through plenty in his career, and Monday against the Pittsburgh Steelers, he had a nasty injury to his leg…the other one.
The FOX broadcast crew got a shot of Alex Smith’s left leg and there was a significant amount of blood down on his lower shin.
Toward the end of the first half, Smith’s lower leg was stepped on, opening up a wound that leaked through his socks and tape.
The Washington gave a disgusting quote about his leg after the huge win.
“I could visually see the blood pumping out, so it was a good one,” he said, via Sam Fortier of the Washington Post. “It was lucky to have it happen just before halftime. I’ve never had one gush like that.”
Smith completed 31 of 46 passes for 296 yards and a touchdown as Washington rallied from a 14-3 halftime deficit to stun the previously unbeaten Steelers.
