Alex Smith
During a game against the Houston Texans on November 18, 2018, Smith was sacked by Kareem Jackson and J. J. Watt. The hit caused Smith's right leg to break. When Smith was getting surgery, he developed necrotizing fasciitis and almost had to get his leg amputated. In July 2020, doctors said he was able to return to football. The team cleared him to play on August 16, 2020. On October 11, Smith made his return in a 30-10 loss to the Los Angeles Rams.
