The Giants signed Smith after failing to come to terms with cornerback Ross Cockrell, Sam Beal opted out of the 2020 season, and the NFL placed Deandre Baker on the Commissioner Exempt list.
Signed as an undrafted free agent in May, Smith was a four-year starter for New Hampshire and was selected as the Colonial Athletic Association’s Defensive Rookie of the Year in 2016.
Over his final three seasons, Smith started 29 games and was named the team’s Most Outstanding Defensive Player following his senior season in which he finished third on the team in tackles (64), second in interceptions (three) and second in pass breakups (seven).
