12/18/12 - CB Jimmy Smith returned on a limited basis after missing five games following sports hernia surgery, but allowed a catch that set up a touchdown run.
The former first-round draft pick from Colorado had two tackles, and wasn't very quick.

"Unfortunately, he wasn't as quick as I would have hoped he would be. We'll just have to see how he does this week. Sometimes in practice, it's a little harder to judge that."
