He is coming off a stellar freshman season where he had 76 receptions for 1315 yards and 15 TDs while helping the Buckeyes win the national championship. <\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, Smith&#8217;s stardom got even bigger as it was announced that he would be one of the cover athletes for EA Sports College Football 26 alongside Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams. The two young wide receivers are already two of the biggest stars in the nation despite being early in their careers. <\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, the &#8220;MMG&#8221; YouTube channel posted a sponsored EA video from the cover photo shoot. In the video, Smith built his perfect QB in the Road to Glory game mode (Timestamp 2:25).<\/p>\n<p><template id=\"also-read-articles-template\"><\/p>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<p><template id=\"bets-today-poll\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"preview-card-holder bets-today-poll\">\n<p><span class=\"date\"\/> \u2022 <span class=\"time\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"march-madness-logo\" src=\"https:\/\/staticg.sportskeeda.com\/skm\/assets\/march-madness-logo.png\" height=\"42\" width=\"99\" alt=\"march madness logo\"\/><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/template><\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;I would go quarterback.

Ewers struggled with injuries and his performance dropped. As a result, he fell to the seventh round of the draft.
