Smith surprised everyone last summer by unexpectedly announcing his retirement at the age of 28.  In a statement he released at the time Smith said that he needs to get his "world in order.

“At this time, I must take time away from this game [and] get my world in order.  I must give this time back to myself, my family [and] my health.”

Well we now know why he called it quits out of nowhere and holy shit what is going on in the world these days.  Millions of dollars to play a game and it wasn't enough for Smith to be on his best behavior.
