Kansas football fans enjoy following former Jayhawks in the NFL. Ten former Jayhawks are in NFL training camps this month. Fish Smithson and Brandon Stewart are making the most of their opportunities to get paid to play. They were ignored in the NFL draft but signed as free agents and both saw playing time in preseason openers.
Smithson picked up right where he left off for David Beaty and the Kansas football program. He is tough and likes to hit. You may remember Smithson led the nation in solo tackles as a junior.
