Here are a few teams that could be interested in signing Smith as a free agent.
Chicago Bears
It’s no secret that the Bears need major offensive line help. They allowed the fourth most sacks last season with 58. It’s unknown how much Smith is looking for in his next contract, but the Bears have the most available cap space available to sign free agents this offseason.
Denver Broncos
The offensive line has been a mess in Denver for years. They allowed the most sacks last season with 63. That can’t continue considering all the money and draft capital they gave up to get Russell Wilson. New head coach Sean Payton is also familiar with Smith having coached against him when he was in New Orleans.
Los Angeles Rams
After winning the Super Bowl the previous season, the Rams were a disaster in 2022-23. A lot of that had to do with their horrendous offensive line. They allowed 59 sacks which was third most in the league. Matthew Stafford missed the majority of the year due to injury and will need a good offensive line in front of him. Smith should be a target for the Rams who need to hit the free agent market hard because of their lack of draft picks.
Tennessee Titans
The Titans just released their left tackle Taylor Lewan to save cap space. It might seem strange to dip right back into the free agency market to get another lineman, but the Titans are in a winnable division. Saving money by cutting Lewan will allow them to rebuild their roster. Smith would be a good fit for this team who gave up 49 sacks last season.
