Jaguars concerned for Telvin Smith after police raid home

Questions surrounding former Jaguars linebacker Telvin Smith continue to swirl in the wake of a police raid at 28-year-old’s home Wednesday and it has some of his old teammates expressing concern.

Defensive end Calais Campbell told media in Jacksonville that he hasn’t heard from Smith in a month. Neither team president Tom Coughlin nor head coach Doug Marrone had any information available on Smith’s status — though both confirmed they were aware of the raid.

Smith abruptly stepped away from football in May following a five-year stint with the Jags that saw him earn Pro Bowl honors in 2017 and record a career-high 134 tackles in 2018.
