Redshirt freshman safety CJ Smith has entered his name in the transfer portal, Husker247 confirmed through an NU football spokesman.
Smith joins Cam'Ron Jones as young defensive backs from the Nebraska 2018 recruiting class who have decided to move on from Nebraska after the spring. The 6-foot-2, 205-pound Smith actually worked his way onto the field last fall, playing on special teams against Purdue and Northwestern before having to be carted off the field after covering a kick against the Wildcats.
It was a severe knee injury that ended his season and also kept him out of action this spring. Due to playing less than four games, Smith was able to use his redshirt last season.
