There are always surprises in any NFL training camp. Kansas City Chiefs fans got one on Wednesday morning, as cornerback (and kick returner) Tremon Smith donned a new number and moved to the offensive unit — apparently as a running back.
But hold on a minute. Perhaps this isn’t that surprising.
Drafted as a cornerback in the sixth round of the 2018 NFL draft out of Central Arkansas, Smith played exclusively on defense and special teams for the Bears. But for the Saks High School Wildcats in Anniston, Alabama, Smith played on defense and offense.
