Dr. Andrews confirms initial report: No surgery
Tip of the cap to mirage for posting this article two posts down.
Dr. Andrews confirmed late today that the team's diagnosis was correct and two ligaments are torn, NOT two tendons that Ed Werder was reporting and I initially posted.
Smith will be evaluated today when swelling in his shoulder is expected to subside. Smith attended practice, his right arm in a sling.
"His spirits are great," Dilfer said. "He's doing everything in his power to get back."
The team will know more after the swelling goes down tomorrow, so if I don't get any updated information up (likely to be found in Matt Maiocco's blog), feel free to post in a diary or in this thread.
[EDITOR'S NOTE - 11:30PM] - Speaking of Matt Maiocco's blog, he has posted an interview with a leading shoulder expert.

No imminent QB signing
Saw a friend last night who was saying 10-6 a month ago. He's moping and saying 6-10 now.
Hey, who knows? I was leaning towards 9-7, and they still could do that if they can get their offensive line working.
