Should I Start Ainias Smith?

Saturday, March 2, 3:03 PM

During an NFL combine medical evaluation, doctors found that Texas A&M wide receiver Ainias Smith (shin) has a stress fracture in his left shin, according to sources. Smith won't work out at the combine in Indianapolis this weekend and will visit with a specialist next week. The 22-year-old wideout's after-the-catch abilities make him an intriguing prospect at the NFL level, but unfortunately, this injury will cause his draft stock to fall ahead of April's draft. In addition to the stress fracture that was discovered this week, Ainias fractured his leg in 2022. With a new leg fracture to consider, Smith has quickly become a pretty big injury risk for the upcoming NFL draft.
