The San Francisco 49ers were reportedly in the mix for cornerback Sean Smith. He explained on Friday why he made the decision he did.
The Oakland Raiders signed cornerback Sean Smith last week after what was reported to be a heated competition with the San Francisco 49ers and Kansas City Chiefs. We did not get a lot of details about the 49ers involvement, other than that they made a push.
Smith ended up choosing the Raiders, and Friday morning he was on 95.7 The Game discussing his new team. At one point he was asked about choosing the Raiders over the 49ers.
