Narrative:
Executed an uneventful/normal landing onto lit runway 22L exiting at taxiway south and taxiway right. Ground control notified us that smoke was emanating from the left main gear and there was an apparent blown tire on the same side. Consequently, the captain requested a ground crew to inspect the area. While waiting for the ground crew and stopped on taxiway right, ground informed us that a fluid was puddling in front of the suspect gear. Therefore, the captain requested emergency crew coverage as a precaution. The inspection confirmed a blown tire on the left outboard main gear and a puddle of water condensation in front of the gear area. We continued our taxi to the gate without further incident.
