Quarterback Alex Smith now a 49ers captain
Football Betting Lines
09/09/2010 - SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) - It's not as if Alex Smith needed the captain tag in front of his name. As quarterback, he's long been considered the leader of San Francisco's offense anyway. He spent the offseason showing everybody why. Smith changed his schedule to take time to throw to different receivers. He committed countless hours to studying at team headquarters and picking the brains of offensive coordinator Jimmy Raye and quarterbacks coach Mike Johnson. Now, Smith has the captain title to show for it. Coach Mike Singletary made the call this week heading into the 49ers' season opener Sunday at Seattle. It's the first time in Smith's six NFL seasons that he's been a regular captain. Early in his career, he had the tag on occasion but the duties shifted game to game.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.
