Philadelphia Eagles Smith was selected by the
Philadelphia Eagles in the second round of the
2003 NFL draft. As a rookie, he backed up
Chad Lewis, and had 27 receptions for 321 yards and a touchdown. Coach
Andy Reid worked Smith and Lewis both into the offense with two tight-end sets, and Smith had 34 receptions, 377 yards and five touchdowns in 2004. That season, the Eagles reached
Super Bowl XXXIX and Smith made an impressive diving reception in the back of the end zone for the Eagles' first touchdown of the game, though they would go on to lose to the New England Patriots 24–21. With the retirement of Chad Lewis and suspension of
Terrell Owens, Smith became one of
Donovan McNabb's top targets; between 2005 and 2006, Smith led the Eagles in receptions, receiving yards and receiving touchdowns. Entering the final year of his contract in 2007, Smith suffered a
hernia injury that could have possibly kept him out for the season. Smith however did recover in time for the season opener, though the injury would limit him for much of the year. Unable to reach an agreement on a long-term deal, the Eagles placed the
franchise tag on Smith for the 2008 season.
Baltimore Ravens Smith signed a one-year, $1.5 million deal with the
Baltimore Ravens on March 20, 2009. In his lone season in Baltimore (plagued by injuries) Smith had only two catches for 31 yards, and had no starts backing up
Todd Heap. ==NFL career statistics==
