Apologies if you consider this pedantic, but I prefer to phrase it in terms of the wavefunctions in position and momentum, rather than position and momentum, unadorned: At a quantum-mechanical level, the wavefunction in the position domain is the Fourier transform of the wavefunction in the momentum domain, and vice versa - anything that constrains the position wavefunction to a narrow interval inherently also smears the momentum wavefunction... Again, apologies if this seems pedantic. I know enough about quantum mechanics to be dangerous, but am no expert, so pedantic wording helps me keep things straight.
