ST. JOSEPH, Mo.
Standing in front of a throng of media, Chiefs cornerback Sean Smith wore a bright red hat — adorned with the word “Smith” in gold-plated letters — on his head, and a smile on his face.
This was Friday, the day veterans were required to report to training camp at Missouri Western, and Smith, who could be seen talking and joking with his teammates beforehand, was clearly happy to be back.
Then the cameras turned on, questions commenced, and the topic of his recently-announced three-game suspension for his DUI plea in March came up.
