Smith has bounced around since being a fifth-round pick by the Broncos in the same 2013 draft which brought Ziggy Ansah to the Lions. Injuries have definitely taken their toll on the 6’5″, 258-pound end from Western Kentucky. He spent last season on the practice squad with both Jacksonville and the New York Jets.
