| 49ers QB Alex Smith Won't Be Handed The Starting Job? | | |
When Matt Maiocco of The Santa Rosa Press-Democrat asked 49ers coach Mike Singletary (several times) at the NFL Scouting Combine whether Alex Smith would be the team's starting quarterback in 2010, he finally said yes. "The thing for me is I'm always going to use words like 'probably' and all those other things because I like competition," Singletary said. "I like guys knowing that they're always going to compete. But I feel very comfortable in saying Alex Smith is our starting quarterback going forward." David Carr is expected to report to the 49ers for the beginning of the offseason program on Monday and is bringing his contract with him, a two-year, $6.25 million deal that includes a $2 million signing bonus. Nothing will be handed to Smith, though is certainly considered the starter at this point in the offseason but Singletary, offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye and quarterbacks coach Mike Johnson owe it to the team, the entire organization and fan base to get the better quarterback on the field.
