Smith originally signed with the Jaguars practice squad on December 26 to finish the 2017 season.

He was let go by Indianapolis in August after suffering a groin injury early in training camp and that led to him being released. The Toronto, Ontario native played in two games for the Colts in 2016. Smith spent a week on the Oakland Raiders practice squad, but he was released.

After a four-year career at the University of Iowa where Smith made 102 receptions for 1,500 yards and seven touchdowns, the speedy receiver posted blistering times at his Iowa Pro Day. The six-foot-two, 205-pounder went unselected in the 2016 NFL Draft.

Smith was selected in the first round, 8th overall by the Edmonton Eskimos in the 2016 CFL Draft.
