Alex Smith suffered a compound fracture - meaning the bone broke through his skin, per source. Trauma surgeons discovered Smith suffered a spiral fracture in his leg - defined as a long bone broken by a rotational force. Smith, 34, faces a lengthy rehab process to try to return.

I wish him all the best on any attempt to return to the game, but I also hope he takes the time to seriously evaluate the idea of not returning to the field.
