Unlikely to play Friday
Smith (groin) isn't in line to play in Friday's preseason contest against the Jets, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
Analysis: Smith picked up a groin injury late last week and hasn't practiced in the interim. On Wednesday, coach Nick Sirianni termed Smith day-to-day, but the wide receiver hasn't made enough progress to be cleared for game action. With Smith on the sidelines, the Eagles' top options at wide receiver are A.J. Brown and Quez Watkins, with the likes of Zach Pascal and Jalen Reagor also on hand.

Labeled day-to-day
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni said Wednesday that Smith (groin) is day-to-day, Martin Frank of The Delaware News Journal reports.
Analysis: Smith remains sidelined due to a minor groin injury, but he's managed to resume handling rehab work off to the side. Sirianni also announced that the Eagles' starters will be on the field for one or two series during Friday's preseason opener against the Jets, but it remains to be seen if Smith will be cleared to suit up in time for that contest. When deemed healthy, Smith will rejoin A.J. Brown and Dallas Goedert as Jalen Hurts' top receiving options.

Sits out with minor groin injury
Smith will be held out of Thursday's practice with a groin injury, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that the injury doesn't appear serious, as Smith joined his teammates on the field for pre-practice stretching. It's the first report of any injury issue for Smith this year, following a rookie campaign in which he played all 17 games and barely missed any practice time during the regular season. He did suffer an MCL sprain last August and a few minor injuries in college, but he's missed just two games total his last five seasons between Alabama…read more

Tops depth chart along with Brown
Following the recent NFL Draft, the Eagles' wide receiver depth chart will be topped by newcomer A.J. Brown along with Smith, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Brown, who the Eagles obtained from the Titans on the first night of the draft, is now slated to pair with Smith, who caught 64 of his 104 targets for 916 yards and five TDs in 17 games as a rookie after going 10th overall in the 2021 NFL Draft. At 6-foot-1, 226 pounds, Brown adds a physical presence opposite Smith, who's listed at 6-foot, 170 pounds. The duo's fantasy upside hinges largely on how well they click with starting QB Jalen Hurts, but both Brown and Smith should at least see steady…read more

Gets big help in receiving corps
The Eagles hope Smith will be helped by the acquisition of A.J. Brown, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Smith is a smaller receiver at 6-foot, 170 pounds while Brown is much larger at 6-foot-6 and 340 pounds, and coach Nick Sirianni views the duo as complementary to one another. Brown's addition to the receiver room should at the very least draw defensive focus from the 2021 first-round pick as well as create more opportunity for the whole offense by lengthening drives. Quez Watkins, Zach Pascal, Jalen Reagor and Greg Ward will likely now function mostly as afterthoughts in what was a run-first…read more

Produces little with 11 targets
Smith recorded four receptions on 11 targets for 60 yards in Sunday's 31-15 wild-card round loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Smith finished second on the team with 11 targets, but he averaged only 5.5 yards per look on his way to a disappointing performance. Though his final line was uninspiring, Smith did turn in a strong second half, as he had only one reception on two targets through the first two quarters. Though it came in garbage time, Smith picked up chunk gains of 31 and 19 yards in the fourth quarter to account for the majority of his production. He'll now look toward his second season as a pro after a solid…read more

Sets rookie record
Smith caught three of four targets for 41 yards in Saturday's 51-26 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Smith was involved early on, enabling him to set the Eagles' rookie record for receiving yards in a season. The first-rounder's performance included a long grab of 25 yards on a heads-up play during Philadelphia's opening series, extending what became a touchdown drive. Fresh off his personal accomplishment, Smith will now set his sights on his first career playoff appearance next weekend.

Three catches in win
Smith caught three of his six targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 20-16 win over Washington.
Analysis: Smith's first catch of the day accounted for most of his yards as he caught Jalen Hurts' first pass attempt of the game for a 30-yard pickup. The rookie was pretty quiet after that but still was able to lead all Philadelphia wide receivers in receiving yards once again, trailing only Dallas Goedert (71 yards) among all pass catchers. Smith has a nice matchup on tap against the Cowboys in Week 18, but his playing time may be affected with both teams having clinched the playoffs already.

Scores heavily scrutinized TD
Smith secured five of seven targets for 80 yards and a touchdown in the Eagles' 34-10 win over the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Smith paced the Eagles in receptions and receiving yardage, with his production in each category also serving as his best since Week 9. The rookie's four-yard scoring grab in the latter portion of the third quarter was also the subject of two replays, with the latter review confirming the score after the first one seemed to nullify it. Smith is likely to again play a prominent role in a key Week 17 road showdown against Washington.

Three catches in win
Smith brought in three of five targets for 40 yards in the Eagles' 27-17 win over Washington on Tuesday night.
Analysis: The speedster took a back seat in the air attack to tight end Dallas Goedert, who exploded for a season-high 135 receiving yards. Smith got 28 of his yards on one catch, but it was otherwise a quiet night for the talented rookie. Despite the untimely downturn Tuesday, Smith is still a poor candidate for a Week 16 benching on fantasy playoff rosters considering his home matchup against a Giants secondary that's played poorly on the road all season.

Eagles-Washington moved to Tuesday
Smith and the Eagles will no longer play Washington on Sunday, after the NFL officially rescheduled the matchup between the two teams for Tuesday at 7 p.m. ET.
Analysis: Due to ongoing COVID-19-related issues within Washington's organization, the NFL is hopeful that by delaying the game two days, the Football Team will restore enough players from the reserve/COVID-19 list to alleviate depth concerns on the roster. The two-day delay could also help Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts (ankle) get healthier, as he had been listed as questionable for the Week 15 contest before the game was postponed Friday. While Hurts was sidelined in the Eagles' Week 13 win over the…read more

Held down again
Smith recorded two receptions on four targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 33-18 win over the Jets.
Analysis: Smith was limited by game script, as the Eagles took to the air only 25 times while playing with the lead for the majority of the contest. Even so, both Dallas Goedert and Kenneth Gainwell saw more targets than Smith, who has combined to post just four receptions on eight targets for 37 yards across his last two games. Smith will have the chance to regroup in an effort to return to his more productive ways as the Eagles head into their Week 14 bye.

Takes full reps Thursday
Smith (illness) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Analysis: According to Tim McManus of ESPN.com, Smith was spotted with a brace protecting the elbow he first hurt Week 9 against the Chargers, but neither that injury nor the non-COVID-19-related ailment that kept him out of Wednesday's walk-through will prevent him from playing Sunday against the Jets. In his return to practice, Smith took reps with the first-team offense with both backup Gardner Minshew and starter Jalen Hurts, who was limited for the second straight day due to a sore ankle.

Dealing with non-COVID-19 illness
Smith was listed as a non-participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report due to an illness.
Analysis: Fortunately for Smith's fantasy managers, the illness isn't related to COVID-19, per EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer. Smith has two sessions remaining this week to put the ailment behind him and ready himself for Sunday's road game against the Jets.

Underused Sunday
Smith caught two passes for 22 yards on four targets against the Giants on Sunday.
Analysis: Jalen Hurts struggled as a passer and took Smith down with him, yet both players should find a more welcoming matchup when the Eagles face the Jets in Week 13. Smith's disappointing numbers against the Giants mostly occurred because Hurts threw for only 129 yards and three interceptions on 31 attempts, but an outcome like that is far less likely versus New York.

Four grabs in win
Smith brought in four of six targets for 61 yards in the Eagles' 40-29 win over the Saints on Sunday.
Analysis: Smith narrowly missed out on a touchdown grab in the left corner of the end zone late in the first half when he couldn't quite come down inbounds, and he otherwise put together a solid but unspectacular day. The rookie's production continues to be somewhat capped by quarterback Jalen Hurts' overall limitations as a passer, but he's now eclipsed 60 receiving yards in four of the last five games. Smith's Week 12 matchup takes him to New York, where he'll face a Giants secondary that's been much…read more

Two more TDs in Sunday's win
Smith caught four of six targets for 66 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 30-13 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: After finding the end zone only once in his first eight NFL games, Smith has now scored three TDs in his last two contests while flashing some impressive chemistry with Jalen Hurts. The rookie wideout will look to continue his recent strong stretch of play in Week 11 against the Saints.

Smith (elbow) practiced in full Thursday.
Analysis: After one session with a cap on his reps due to an elbow issue, Smith managed to log all individual and team work Thursday. With his health not in question, he's again poised to serve as the Eagles' No. 1 wide receiver Sunday against a Broncos defense that has allowed 162.8 total yards per game and nine touchdowns to the position in nine contests this season.

Limited with elbow injury
Smith was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to an elbow injury, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Smith should be able to play through the issue Sunday in Denver, after he submitted a 5-116-1 receiving line in the Eagles' Week 9 loss to the Chargers. He's locked in as Philly's top wide receiver by a wide margin, but there's some cause for concern with just nine targets over the past two weeks. The Eagles have quickly shifted from a pass-heavy to run-heavy approach, albeit with a lot of help from their matchups.

Big effort in loss
Smith caught five of six targets for 116 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: While the rookie didn't see big volume, Smith still put together a huge performance as the only receiving option of note for the Eagles. It's his second career game with 100-plus yards, while the TD was his first since Week 1. He'll look to keep building momentum in a Week 10 tilt against the Broncos.

Just three targets in win
Smith caught one of three targets for 15 yards in Sunday's 44-6 win over Detroit.
Analysis: Smith had just one target in the first half. The Eagles hardly needed to pass in the blowout and mostly played it safe when they did. With what should be a much more competitive Week 9 matchup with the Chargers, the rookie first-round pick should see a more customary allotment of targets.

Puts headache behind him
Smith (headache) was a full practice participant Thursday.
Analysis: Smith sat out Wednesday due to a headache, which ultimately wasn't serious, as indicated by his bump in activity level.

Misses practice with headache
Smith missed Wednesday's practice with a headache, EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

Five grabs against Raiders
Smith caught five of nine targets for 61 yards in Sunday's 33-22 loss to the Raiders.
Analysis: The rookie wideout led the Eagles in receptions and targets, although Dallas Goedert hauled in more yardage. Smith has caught at least five passes in three of the last four games as he continues to build chemistry with Jalen Hurts, which will give him some intriguing upside in Week 8 against a Lions secondary that just got carved up by Cooper Kupp.

Smith secured two of four targets for 31 yards in the Eagles' 28-22 loss to the Buccaneers on Thursday night.
Analysis: Despite the Buccaneers playing with a short-handed secondary that was further depleted when Richard Sherman was forced from the contest with a hamstring injury, Smith couldn't make a significant impact on a night when the entire Eagles passing attack underwhelmed. The speedy rookie did record his fourth catch of over 20 yards on the season, but his total tally on the night was a considerable disappointment after Smith had turned in a 14-199 effort on 19 targets over his previous two games.…read more

Fumbles in win
Smith caught seven of eight targets for 77 yards but lost a fumble in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Panthers. He also hauled in a successful two-point conversion.
Analysis: Smith saw a touchdown nullified in the first half and later lost the first fumble of his career, but he still rallied to prove influential in the Eagles' comeback victory. The rookie drew a pass-interference call in the end zone to set up a one-yard touchdown in the third quarter, then Smith caught a crucial two-point conversion to put the Eagles up three late. In the end, he led Philadelphia across the board in receiving, building on last week's seven-catch, 122-yard showing. With back-to-back…read more

First 100-yard game in Week 4 loss
Smith caught seven of 10 targets for 122 yards in Sunday's 42-30 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: Smith successfully created separation throughout the game against the struggling Chiefs defense. The 10th overall pick still made some rookie mistakes, including running a wrong route that almost led to a Jalen Hurts interception late in the first half, but there's no question that Smith has the talent to thrive in the NFL.

Slips on interception
Smith caught three of six targets for 28 yards in Monday night's 41-21 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Smith had a long gain of 19 yards in the first half, but he opened the second by slipping on a target from quarterback Jalen Hurts, allowing college teammate Trevon Diggs to intercept the ball and run 59 yards for a touchdown. Despite the score getting lopsided at that point and the Eagles consequently being forced to pass, Smith still couldn't muster much production, failing to top 30 yards for the second straight week.

Makes little of seven targets
Smith recorded two receptions on seven targets for 16 yards in Sunday's Week 2 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Smith was the favorite target of Jalen Hurts, but the pair didn't find the same connection they showcased in Week 1. The Eagles' offense struggled overall, with Quez Watkins being the primary member of the offense to post notable production. While it's a positive that Smith remained the top target in the offense, his down performance highlights the volatility that the Eagles' offense could experience throughout the season.

Analysis: Smith missed a good portion of training camp due to a sprained MCL, but he was able to suit up in the Eagles' second exhibition against the Patriots. Because Jalen Hurts was a late scratch due to an illness, Smith worked with backup QB Joe Flacco, gathering in two of four targets for 19 yards.

Analysis: The reigning Heisman Trophy winner just returned to team drills Tuesday after dealing with an MCL sprain and jumped into his first taste of NFL game action just 48 hours later. Smith didn't get an opportunity to work with Jalen Hurts, who was a late scratch due to an illness, but he was still able to benefit from playing with a very experienced signal-caller in Joe Flacco.

Analysis: As John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia reported earlier Thursday, Smith is slated to "get some plays" after tending to an MCL sprain in his left knee for the bulk of training camp. Smith missed two and half weeks due to the injury, but he got back on the practice field Monday and was in team drills Tuesday, setting him up for an appearance Thursday.

On track for NFL debut Thursday
Smith (knee) is expected to "get some plays" in Thursday's preseason game against New England, John Clark of NBC Sports Philadelphia reports.
Analysis: Smith missed two and a half weeks of practice after spraining the MCL in his left knee July 31. He just returned to practice this Monday, but a quick return to team drills (Tuesday) suggests the rookie wideout is feeling good. Prior to his injury, Smith had opened training camp on the first-string offense, with the Eagles leaving no doubt about where their expectations stand after trading up to take Smith at No. 10 overall in the 2021 draft.

Analysis: Smith returned for a limited practice Monday after missing two and a half weeks with an MCL sprain. He'd have a better chance to play if the Eagles were facing the Patriots over the weekend instead of this Thursday, but Smith should at least have time to prepare for the preseason finale against the Jets on Aug. 27.

He sprained the MCL in his left knee July 31, and a return to practice Monday puts him right in the middle of the timeline estimate (2-to-3 weeks).

Smith has been upgraded to day-to-day as he continues to recover from an MCL sprain, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Smith actually was spotted stretching with the team and running sprints on the sidelines, so it was assumed the first-round pick would ultimately participate in Saturday's practice, but the Eagles continue to be cautious with their prized rookie.

Week-to-week with knee injury
Smith is considered week-to-week with a knee sprain, though the Eagles expect him back sooner than later, according to Bo Wulf of The Athletic.
Analysis: Smith suffered the injury Saturday and was held out of practice Monday. We might normally worry about a rookie falling behind and missing out on his chance to earn a role, but the Eagles don't have much else at wide receiver, and the other guys -- namely Jalen Reagor, Travis Fulgham and Quez Watkins -- also have been banged up during the early part of training camp.

Each of the three is dealing with a lower-body injury, and while none of the issues seems serious, they're all missing out on opportunities to build chemistry with second-year QB Jalen Hurts.
