The Heisman Trophy winner's most public injury was when he dislocated his index finger in the National Championship game. The finger injury was severe as the team doctor was unable to reduce on the field. Before the injury, Smith had an eye popping 12 catches for 215 yards and three touchdowns in the first half. Surgery was required to relocate the finger but this will be a non-issue going forward (See Torry Holt). The clavicle fracture suffered in 2014 as a high school sophomore will require a follow up X-ray but should be a non-factor as the speedy wideout could be the first wide receiver selected in the draft after becoming the first WR since Desmond Howard (1991) to win the Heisman.
