Andre Smith poised to return for Carolina Panthers

Posted Aug 27, 2018
No one could question Andre Smith’s toughness after he racked up 113 tackles for North Carolina in 2016 with a torn pectoral. His latest injury, however, will test his toughness in a different way. Smith, a rookie linebacker who got off to a torrid start for the Tar Heels in 2017 before a knee injury ended his season, has been out of action since his second play of the preseason.
