Nine-year veteran offensive tackle Donovan Smith announced his retirement from football on Sunday.
Smith played 136 games in his NFL career. He was a second-round pick by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 2015 NFL Draft. He was immediately plugged into the starting lineup and was a PFWA All-Rookie selection.
He would go on to play eight seasons for the Buccaneers. Most notably, he was a starter on the team that won Super Bowl LV.
The Buccaneers released Smith in March of 2023. He signed with the Kansas City Chiefs, where he concluded his career by winning his second Super Bowl ring.
He went unsigned for the entire 2025 season.
