Dont think he would publicly insinuate he is upset because the niners kept competition for the starting spot. Especially Goldson who he knows and has played with his entire career.

Sounds like a minor injury that will keep him out for a couple weeks if he is doing walkthroughs. But when starting spots are up for grabs missing anytime can mean you miss the chance to start, especially when they just brought back the man who started last year.

This quote is what lead me to believe it was because of the Goldson re-singing. I believe Smith thought it was his FS job to lose, but now it will be Goldson's job to lose.

I always thought Reggie Smith was a better FS than Goldson anyway, actually I thought Reggie Smith was the best FS on the team.
this f**king sucks, now we've got 3 or 4 SS and no FS, i am not comfortable with goldson as a FS and covering isnt whitners deal

I personally don't see Smith as a SS. You gotta remember that this defense is sepposed to be able to mirror each side of the field. Doesn't sound like to me that there is going to be a big difference between the FS and SS responsibility other than what side of the field they are on.

i see smith as a FS, now that hes hurt or whatever, we dont have 1, goldson isnt 1 IMO, i thought this interchangebale safety stuff was manuskys scheme? thought that was changing under fnagio? i could be wrong but thats the impression i was under

Me too bro, I still think Reggie has a chance even with the resigning of Goldson.

That is my take on the quote too. He was doing well and the job was his and now he will have to fight to try and get some playing time.

On whether he feels true free safeties and true strong safeties are less interchangeable:
“It can be that they’re interchangeable – the free safety and the safety position, there’s really no difference depending on the guys you got. I think that’s the way it’s developing with the safeties we have on our roster right now, that they can be those kind of safeties and that they can be interchangeable. They can play the deep half of the field, play the deep middle, also physical enough to come up and play in the box.”

No problem. Yeah, could be trouble, I hear ya. I'd rather see Reggie Smith as the cover FS, but that's what TC and preseason is all about... make them work for it and prove they deserve it more than the others.
maybe they are moving Reggie Smith back to CB?
