Troy Smith (born July 30, 1977) is a former American football wide receiver. He was drafted by the Philadelphia Eagles in the sixth round of the 1999 NFL Draft and later tore his ligament in his leg on a 14-yard reception thrown by Koy Detmer in a game.[1] His leg could not be healed, which forced him to discontinue play in the National Football League (NFL).[citation needed]
He played basketball and football at Junius H. Rose High School and continued playing both sports at East Carolina University (basketball in his freshman year and football in his sophomore, junior, and senior years).
