Alex Smith signs a new ESPN deal, expanding his role as an analyst and set to pop up on Get Up and First Take throughout the season. The Chiefs alum brings a quarterback’s-eye view from his five-year KC run, including 50 wins, 17,000+ passing yards and 102 TDs, to sharper QB analysis and weekly fantasy insights.

This move reinforces ESPN’s QB-centric coverage and provides fantasy managers with deeper context on decision-making, pressure handling, and scheme, aiding streamer decisions and risk assessment as the NFL season unfolds.
