Carolina Panthers wide receiver Shi Smith was arrested Friday for unlawfully carrying a handgun, drug possession and speeding 16-24 mph over the limit in South Carolina, according to Union County Sheriff's Office records. WYFF News 4 was the first to report the arrest. Smith, a sixth-round draft pick out of South Carolina in 2021, appeared in six games last season for the Panthers and had six catches for 104 yards. A Panthers team spokesman told The Associated Press the team is aware of the arrest and that "this is a pending legal matter and there will be no further comment at this time."
