Jonnu Smith hasn't had a formal introduction with the Steelers just yet, but he's made his first public comments after being traded away from the Dolphins.
In an interview with Terron Armstead, Smith said he initially signed with the Dolphins to make it a long-term home and didn't foresee a trade happening. Though he said he has no ill will toward the Dolphins for how things played out, he said he's excited to play in Pittsburgh:
"I'm blessed. I'm a Steeler," Smith said. "I'm playing for one of the most historic sports franchises. I have a great head coach with Mike T(omlin). I'm back with my guy Arthur Smith, who I've had a lot of success with throughout my career. I couldn't be more excited."
