Drafted 176th overall, Smith passed for 10,112 career yards, 76 touchdowns and 36 interceptions in 45 career starts.
The 6-foot-5, 226-pounder was named Sun Belt Player of the Year as a sophomore after connecting on 281 of 479 passes for 3,688 yards with 32 touchdowns.
He led FAU to its second consecutive bowl game as a junior and was named Motor City Bowl MVP after throwing for 306 yards and two touchdowns.
