The Colt McCoy era has started after Alex Smith broke his tibia and fibula today. Smith needed surgery after the game and his season is over.
The Redskins only carried two QBs this year. Their 3rd QB this offseason, Kevin Hogan, was picked up on waivers by the Denver Broncos after he was waived.
That means the Redskins have to scramble to get a backup QB on the short week before their game against the Cowboys in Dallas on Thanksgiving Day. Jay Gruden said he hoped they were already on the plane to Redskins headquarters in this post-game presser.
