Colorado cornerback Jimmy Smith knows that NFL teams have identified him as a player with character questions. He says the Scouting Combine was an opportunity for him to address those questions.
Smith acknowledged today on PFT Live that he has failed a drug test, but he thinks he did what he needed to do in his Combine interviews to convince NFL teams that’s all in his past.
“I think they went well,” Smith said. “People know I have character issues, but I don’t think it’s character, I think it’s more bad decisions I made when I was younger. . . . They wanted to know what Jimmy Smith is all about, so I had to present myself well and I think I did that.”
