Bengals | Smith: Life in Cincinnati

Updating previous reports, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports Cincinnati Bengals QB Akili Smith, who is rumored to be released Monday, does not have fond memories of playing in Cincinnati. "It's been hell for everybody. I'm kind of baffled that they drafted me. Ten games into my second season, they benched me, and it was over after that," Smith said. "I thank the fans for all their support. My career is definitely not over. Twenty-two games, seventeen starts. I've got a lot of football left in me."
