Chad Johnson “f-cking loves” DeVonta Smith and believes he has the “IT” factor to be special

He won the nation’s best wide receiver award, the Heisman Memorial Trophy, a Southeastern Conference Championship, and a College Football Playoff National Championship last season at the University of Alabama.

After a mesmerizing senior year, DeVonta Smith declared for the NFL Draft. When he has not been training, he’s been inking major deals such as signing with Klutch Sports Agency. A lot of people have debated and are still discussing who is the best receiver in this year’s draft class between Smith and Ja’Marr Chase. Some have taken the former Louisiana State University standout because of his size, but Chad Johnson went out of his way to endorse Smith on Twitter and show his support of him.
