Smith revealed the news after Cowboys' owner Jerry Jones opened up earlier about Smith's progress and long-term prognosis.
Dallas Cowboys beat writer Jon Machota reported Wednesday on the Smith revelation:
That's not all, as Machota also tweeted a video of a brief interview with Smith where the former Fighting Irish star seemed upbeat and excited about finally getting a chance to play.
