Smith, 25, went undrafted out of Fayetteville State back in 2021. He caught on with the Falcons but did not make the 53-man roster.
He then joined the Dolphins’ practice squad and has signed two futures deals with Miami, eventually being elevated to the active roster. A recent MRI confirmed that he suffered a torn ACL and he will miss the 2024 season as a result.
In 2023, Smith appeared in nine games for the Dolphins as a backup offensive tackle.
We will have more news on Smith as it becomes available.
