Smith spent over a decade on the Ravens, despite several injuries, notably helping carry the team to win Super Bowl XLVII, in just his second season in the league, the team recalled.
The cornerback finished his career with 374 tackles, 74 passes defensed, 14 interceptions and three touchdowns. As a father of four, Smith said this is a good time to rest his body and leave the league just as he started: as a Raven.
