May 14, 2013Topeka Capital-Journal KANSAS CITY, Mo. — It hasn’t taken long for Alex Smith to become the leader of the Kansas City Chiefs. The weight of the franchise was put upon his shoulders from the very second word leaked out that former No. 1 draft pick would be sent from the San Francisco 49ers to the Chiefs during a topsy-turvy offseason.
