When the Eagles cut Smith in 2017 after three seasons, he signed with Seattle and started to grow into himself as a player. But dark, suppressed feelings remained in the summer of 2018. He would drive to the Seahawks’ practice facility past a rocky slope off a shoulder on the road, and on Aug. 18 of that year, Smith decided that was where he would kill himself.
