Steve Smith Found Young Fan Who Cried After His Release From Panthers (VIDEO)

Steve Smith Contacted Young Fan Who Was Emotional Over His Release

The Carolina Panthers cut receiver Steve Smith last week after 13 seasons with the team. The news came hard to one young Panthers fan as his father caught his emotional reaction on camera. But the kid might not be that upset for long. The veteran wideout caught wind of the video after it went viral and then used Twitter on Sunday to actually get in touch with the fan.
