After breaking into the list in 2016 (where he ranked 83rd), Telvin Smith has made it back onto the NFL Network Top 100 following a one year hiatus.
Telvin comes in at 67 this year.
Playing on a defense loaded with stars and big names, Smith continued to improve and made big contributions on a team that was mere minutes from the Super Bowl. Persevering through years of losing and poor coaching, Telvin is finally reaping the rewards of all his hard work.
In 2018, Smith compiled 102 tackles, 3 interceptions, a forced fumble, and one touchdown in the regular season while only playing 14 games.
