The Facts: Coming off the best season of his career, Smith is currently going full steam ahead as he prepares for the 2020 season. He's working out in a one-on-one setting with QB Ryan Tannehill, and he'll head into the season as the team's No.1 tight end. "It is definitely a great feeling, that you can just go into the offseason and get ready to work," Smith said on Wednesday. "The past two years for me, in the offseason I've kind of been in recovery mode. This is the first season I got to actually really go at it 100 miles per hour as soon as the season ended. Me being able to get back to it and get back in the swing of things, it was definitely a good feeling."

Diehards Line:Smith, who caught 35 passes for 439 yards and three touchdowns last season, said he's been working with Tannehill several days a week in South Florida. The two have been meeting at a local park for the past few months without missing a week. "It's been very helpful, just building the chemistry and taking advantage of being in the same location," Smith said. In three NFL seasons, Smith has 73 catches for 854 yards and eight touchdowns. He had a memorable touchdown catch in the corner of the end zone in an AFC Divisional playoff contest at Baltimore. Earlier this offseason, the Titans parted ways with veteran tight end Delanie Walker, putting Smith at the top of the pecking order at a position that also includes returning tight ends Anthony Firkser and MyCole Pruitt. After praising Walker, Smith concluded by acknowledging he's "tight end 1 now" on the team, but he said he's ready for the challenge. We'll be watching for signs of that as the season draws nearer.
