Shi Smith scored his first NFL touchdown with some help from another former South Carolina Gamecock.
Jaycee Horn picked off Seattle Seahawks QB Geno Smith and returned the ball to the 13-yard line. From there, the Carolina Panthers needed only 1 play to score. Panthers QB Sam Darnold hit Smith for the touchdown, the first of his professional career.
