TE Jonnu Smith

(How has it been since you’ve been back down practicing and getting acquainted with the team?) – “Everything has been going great. Definitely getting acclimated, always good to be around during Phase 1, 2 and 3. Just getting used to your teammates, building that camaraderie, building that chemistry, it’s been going awesome. I’m excited to be here.”

(How similar is this to anything you’ve run in your past?) – “It’s a lot of familiar concepts. I’ve been around this offense for quite some time now – my first stint in Tennessee and obviously Atlanta. So coming in a lot more comfortable with the terminology, a lot more comfortable with the concepts and knowing what we want done as a offense. I would say the transition for me has been a pretty smooth one.”

(Have you had the chanced to visit FIU since you’ve been back?) – “I have. I have, this is home. I’m a stone’s throw away from where a part of my journey started. It’s very humbling. Every day I wake up and I still feel like I’m dreaming. There is no place I’d rather be, and there no better place for me. Again man, I’m beyond excited to be a Dolphin.”

(When you look at this offense and the potential, do you think it’s possible to have three 1,000-yard pass catchers?) – “Man, the sky is the limit with these guys. I feel like I’ve said this every year literally because it’s been my honest opinion. That’s just the way my career has went, that’s just the journey I’ve been on and the people I’ve been around. But this is by far the most explosive, talented stacked team I’ve ever been a part of. I’m not even going to say offensively, just as far as a team. Now, what does that mean right now in the beginning of June? Nothing – we’ve got to go out there and continue to put the work in. We all know that and we all believe in that. So as long as we have the mindset that we know who we are and what we can do, and we come in here and work with that mindset, I think we will be very satisfied with the results.”

(How does Father’s Day look for you?) – “I appreciate that man. It’s going to be me and my four babies, my wife by my side and all our family. So definitely excited, it’s good to be home. It’s good to be home with my kids and I don’t have to travel. So I’m looking forward to it.”
