He has been on two NFL teams, but Saivion Smith has found a third home.

The former University of Alabama defensive back is now with the Seattle Seahawks. According to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network, the Seahawks claimed Smith on Thursday off waivers from the Dallas Cowboys. Dallas released the native Floridian on Wednesday after he played the entire 2020 season. Before going to the Cowboys, Smith spent time with the Jacksonville Jaguars.

He signed an undrafted free agent contract on April 27, 2019, but would be waived on August 30.

Smith was selected in the XFL Supplemental Draft by the Houston Roughnecks in 2020.
