C.J. Smith being traded to the Seahawks is major news, isn’t it. (Hint: No, it’s not.) Smith is a three-year pro and plays safety. Want to know why his photo isn’t the one featured for this article? Because the source we use for photos cannot find one of him. That’s how important he is as a player.
Oh, I know what you are hoping. Seattle made the same kind of trade for Justin Coleman last year and Coleman was great. But Coleman was better than expected. And Smith simply isn’t expected to do much.
In 2016 as a rookie with the Philadelphia Eagles, Smith played in 10 games as a defensive back and special teams player.
