Smith said he’s a big fan of the Eagles’s offense and DeVonta Smith in particular.“I love the way Philly plays,” he said. “I know they got Devonta Smith who I don’t really know, but I was a really big fan of in college and whatnot and also the way they just use the receivers, the running backs, it’s a really great scheme.”
