Meet the Team at Smythe and Co. Real Estate
Trust helped launch the successful Franklin business Smythe and Co. Real Estate in 2013 by Owner and Realtor Tanya Smythe.

After Taylor gets his anticipated reps Thursday, look for Tyler Goodson, Evan Hull, Zavier Scott and Demetric Felton to have an opportunity to make their cases for depth slotting in an Indy backfield that also includes Trey Sermon, who's been dealing with a hamstring issue.
