DeVonta Smith on how he handles questions about his size from NFL evaluators
One would think catching 117 passes for 1,856 yards and 23 touchdowns in a shortened season while going up against nothing but SEC or College Football Playoff opponents would quiet all of DeVonta Smith’s doubters.
If you thought that, you’d be wrong.
There are still those that are willing to doubt Smith’s ability to translate his game to the next level due to the fact the Alabama receiver is rather slender when compared to other receivers in the NFL.
How does Smith respond to those concerns?
He laughs them off:
.@DeVontaSmith_6 is 170 pounds with a hunger you can't measure ?
The Heisman winner tells @MasterTes why he laughs when people question his size
