Antone Smith Healthy, Confident Heading into 2015
On the mend from a fractured leg, running back Antone Smith has returned to the field and is healthy once more. And he has big plans for the upcoming season.
During one of the first plays of XFINITY® Training Camp, Antone Smith took a handoff from Matt Ryan, sprinted toward the outside, cut a corner and was gone.
Falcons fans have grown to be accustomed to such runs from the 5-foot-9 back, who has a strong reputation for his highlight reel potential. The numbers don’t lie: Since the NFL/AFL merger, only Smith has registered six scrimmage TDs of 35-plus yards in his first 25 career touches.
