yeah, I bet ST coaches all across the league cut players hahahaha

Well let me say that on any other given team I would think the ST coach has some say if not total say as to who plays on his ST's. Obviously it would have to go through the HC cause I doubt some teams would want their star WR getting hurt or their star RB. Some teams don't care, like the Eagles who used Johnson as KR/PR and WR.

^but as we know the Skins were disfunctional so I guess Smith gets a slight pass. If I was Shanahan and had no other options I'd name Smith also but I would tell him he has 1 year to do something with the ST's. No one can argue that he has the guys tackling well when trying to stop a KR or PR. The issue is our own blocking in those situations. Maybe with a little freedom Smith can show he's not just another ST coach.
