After tumbling all the way down to round six of the 2021 NFL Draft, former Tennessee guard Trey Smith couldn’t have asked for a better landing spot. The Kansas City Chiefs, fresh off of back to back appearances in the Super Bowl, selected the former five-star recruit on day three.
On Thursday, the Chiefs inked Smith to his first NFL contract.
The two-time All-SEC selection went 226th overall, a likely result of his medical history. Smith was twice sidelined due to an ongoing battle with blood clots in his lungs.
