2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Chiefs signed Smith to a one-year, $9 million deal this offseason. The 30-year-old will start at left tackle and be tasked with protecting the blindside of one of the league's top quarterbacks in Patrick Mahomes. Read Past Outlooks
Set to protect Mahomes
Smith agreed to a one-year, $9 million deal with the Chiefs on Thursday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Smith spent the first eight years of his career in Tampa Bay while playing left tackle. Pelissero suggests he'll occupy the same role in Kansas City, which will in turn push fellow offseason addition Jawaan Taylor to the right side. The Chiefs have invested significantly in their offensive line this offseason, which should be good news for their already high-powered offense.
