One of several Super Bowl champions to hail from the town of nearly 70,000 in western Tennessee, Smith joins the likes of Ed ‘Too Tall’ Jones, Trey Teague, and Jabari Greer, as the latest in a long line of top-tier football players to come from the Madison County seat.
The official “Trey Day” events will take place at 4:00 p.m. local time at city hall in Jackson, where Smith will be formally honored for his accomplishments with the Chiefs this season. The affair is set to be live-streamed on Facebook for fans near and far who will not be able to attend in person. It will feature the town’s mayor, Scott Conger, along with head football coach, Nick Stamper, from Smith’s alma mater at The University School of Jackson.
Clearly, Smith is seen as something of a legend among legends in his humble hometown. This well-deserved honor was earned through grit and determination that has come to define his NFL career so far in Kansas City.
