Seventh-round pick who appeared in all 17 games as a rookie but tallied only 44 rushing attempts, averaged 3.4 yards per carry, and scored his lone TD in Week 17, though he did haul in 25 receptions on 35 targets. The Chiefs have since signed Kenneth Walker (Super Bowl Champion & MVP) and spent a fifth-round pick on Emmett Johnson, one of the top receiving RBs in the class, plus signed Emari Demercado as depth. This leaves little room for Smith to rise the depth chart and compete for a meaningful role. The source says Smith is droppable unless still on a taxi squad with space to spare.
