Smith made a name for himself when he led the 2011 San Francisco 49ers to their first NFC West division title since 2002. He was traded to the Kansas City Chiefs in 2013, where he helped lead the team to four playoffs runs. After being traded to Washington in 2018 Smith suffered a severe compound fracture to his tibia and fibula during a game against the Houston Texans. He ended up developing necrotizing fasciitis, which almost cost him his life.
