Mini bio
How it started.
Smith grew up in Amite, Louisiana, and played football and basketball at Amite High Magnet School. His barber and mentor, Vincent Sanders, helped him get to football camps and encouraged his future in the sport. He enrolled at Alabama in 2017.
The catch that introduced him.
As an Alabama freshman, Smith made just eight catches, but his last one won the national championship game for the 2017 season. He stayed through his senior year and won the 2020 Heisman Trophy, becoming the first wide receiver to take the award since Desmond Howard in 1991.
Philadelphia chapters.
The Eagles drafted Smith tenth overall in 2021. He set their rookie receiving record with 916 yards, then helped deliver a Super Bowl LIX victory with a 46-yard touchdown catch in February 2025.
Beyond the field.
His public life includes an annual celebrity softball fundraiser and a love of game-day suits. He embraced dressing up for games in high school, continued at Alabama and carried the habit into the NFL.
