College career
Smith was a successful college wide receiver and kick returner at Georgia Tech from 2001 to 2003. While at Georgia Tech, he majored in Management. In four years, Smith had over 2,931 all-purpose yards and 15 all-purpose touchdowns. He earned the nickname Fast Freddie because his short-strided running style resembled Fred Flintstone when driving the Flintmobile.[1]
Professional career
Smith was drafted in the seventh round of the 2004 NFL Draft by the Buffalo Bills as the 214th overall pick.[2][3] He was the backup kick and punt returner for the Buffalo Bills in 2005 and had over 400 all-purpose yards in his rookie season.
The Bills released Smith at the end of the 2006 preseason. He was immediately claimed off waivers by the New England Patriots,[4] who then released him before the opening game. On September 12, 2006, the Patriots re-signed Smith. On October 5, 2006, the Patriots released Smith from their roster.[5] On January 4, 2007, Smith was signed to the Patriots' 2007 roster.[6] He was released again on July 19, 2007, and claimed by the Bills off waivers on July 23.[7]
