Smith made
a similar declaration about his recovery in April before the team's offseason conditioning program, in which he later participated. Smith told Profootballtalk Live in April that the injury was an issue he dealt with "from about Week 3 on." "There were multiple [tissue] tears," Smith said. "It was one of those injuries where you could play with it or get it fixed. But it wasn't one of those injuries where I wasn't able to run, period, so I kept playing with it. ..." Again, there's no reason to believe a healthier, more experienced Smith won't build on a strong rookie season.
