Chase Smith out for year ?

DMoney alluded to it on this week’s podcast. No details on the injury or timeline for return.
 
Another freakish Injury. Last I heard it wasn’t looking positive for a return this season.

Hope he’s ok. No clue if he will develop into a full time LB but he could make a career in the league off special teams acumen.
 
Started a thread today about Chase potentially moving to safety (not a rumor, just throwing it out there) and someone decided to delete it.

What the heck is up with that? Show yourself.

He was buried on the LB depth chart at the time of injury and we're thin at safety.

He also hasn't added much bulk to his frame and was listed at 6'2 210.

Anyway, here's what 247 said about him as a recruit:

Easily among the most versatile players in the country and could line up at multiple positions at the next level. As a receiver, he uses his length to win jump ball battles and shows the speed to separate. Defensively, he could end up at as a safety or outside ‘backer and really flashes on that side of the ball. He can run down plays from behind, is a big hitter, shows good ball skills and is one of those kids that just always seems to be around the football. He can blitz off the edge as well as drop back in coverage and where he ends up will likely be decided by how much weight he puts on in a few years. He has a safety frame but a linebacker skill set and the closer to the line of scrimmage he plays might be the best way to maximize his enormous skill set.
