Did Brett Veach use Tremon Smith as a chess piece in trade negotiations?

It’s fair to say that no one saw this coming with Tremon Smith.

Let’s start with what we do know. Smith is a 6’0″ 190-pound athlete that Dave Toub loves to tinker with. Named to the NFL All-Rookie Team as a kick returner in 2018, Smith had returns of 97, 61, and 51 yards.

In high school, Smith was the Alabama 3A Player of the Year as a quarterback. He played as the scout team quarterback when the Kansas City Chiefs prepared for the Baltimore Ravens’ Lamar Jackson in 2018.

Smith also displayed very good ball skills as a corner in college, with 15 interceptions and 53 passes defended in his career at Central Arkansas.
