0:00On April 27, E.J. Smith, the son of NFL legend Emmett Smith, just signed with the Kansas City Chiefs as an undrafted free agent after wrapping up his college career at. Texas A&M as a running back. Earlier this week, he worked out for the Dallas Cowboys. The team where his dad built his Hall of Fame legacy as one of the all-time great wrestlers. Cowboys coach Brian Schottonheimer was impressed. Calling him a powerful short-yardish runner with great film and a solid character, the kind of family guy you root for. This 23-year-old put up 969 rushing yards and nine touchdowns across six college seasons though he didn't crack the top, 300 on major scouting boards. Now he's chasing that pro dream in Kansas City, bringing that family football bloodline into a backfield ready for fresh talent.
