Smith's uncertain health status was one of the reasons Anderson was acquired from Denver.
One source of Smith's determination, he said, is his brother John, who lost most of his right leg fighting in Iraq and has since learned to walk with a prosthesis.
With outstanding speed for his 232 pounds, Smith was highly regarded coming out of Georgia in 2003 (his 1,324 yards rushing in his final Bulldog season was third only to Herschel Walker and Garrison Hearst), but a knee injury and subsequent surgery cut into (literally) his rookie season.
