He was cut by the Chiefs during the final roster cuts before this season. Shortly after, he was signed to the Cardinals practice squad, before being released recently. The 25 year old receiver is 5’9, 187 lbs and fits the mold of a quick slot receiver. He was also used to field occasional punt returns.

Steelers Sign CB Devin Smith To Practice Squad
The team announced that they have re-signed CB Devin Smith to the practice squad. Smith was originally signed by the team in August and released during the final preseason roster cuts. He was then signed to the practice squad, but waived a few days later.
Smith (5’10” 182) was released in August by the Cowboys, who originally signed him as an UDFA in April. He was not invited to the Combine, but ran a 4.49 40yd at his pro day at Wisconsin. Smith was viewed as a nickel corner by scouts, and was said to be a strong Special Teams player who could fill in at Safety.
