Who is Dave Smith?

Dave Smith is a former American collegiate and professional football player. A fullback, he played collegiately for Ripon College and professionally from 1960 through 1964 for the American Football League's Houston Oilers, where he was a member of the AFL's first two Championship teams, in 1960 and 1961. He was selected by the Sporting News as the first All-AFL fullback in 1960.
