Smith (hips) was released by the Buccaneers, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith missed an early portion of training camp as he was still recovering from surgery on both hips in November 2018, but he appears healthy after playing in last week's preseason opener. The 33-year-old played in seven contests as a reserve interior lineman for the Bucs last season.

Smith (hip) remains without a firm timetable for return following November 2018 surgery to repair torn labrums in both hips, Jenna Laine of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Laine simply labeled Smith as "still recovering" from the procedure, while adding that Friday's depth signing of veteran center Josh LeRibeus isn't likely to be the only addition to the interior of the Buccaneers' offensive line. Smith has been a highly versatile asset over his five seasons in Tampa, filling in at both guard spots and at center. There's a chance the veteran has a chance to return at some point before the start of the season, but the likelihood of that occurring probably won't be ascertained until later in the summer.

Smith (hip) will have surgery Nov. 26 to repair the torn labrums in both hips, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was placed on injured reserve earlier this week due to the hip injury, but the specifics weren't previously known. Given the severity of the injury the 32-year-old will not be able to return this season.

Smith (hip) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old center has missed the last two games with a hip injury, and is now set to sit out the remainder of the season unless he reaches an injury settlement with Tampa Bay.

Smith (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup with the Redskins, Greg Auman of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith logged two limited practices this week but was unable to practice Friday. The 32-year-old missed Week 9 with this injury as well.

Smith (hip) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran missed last Sunday's game against the Panthers, but Thursday's participation level offers reason for cautious optimism that he might be able to give it a go against the Redskins in Week 10. Smith's practice status Friday should serve as a better indicator of his chances of suiting up against Washington in his customary depth role along the offensive line.

Smith (hip) was officially ruled out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith has been dealing with the hip issue all season but Sunday will be the first time he'll be forced to miss a game. Ryan Jensen will start at center as the Buccaneers offensive line will be short on interior depth at Carolina.

Smith (hip) was a non-participant in Thursday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The downgrade from limited practice Wednesday to a complete absence Thursday is naturally somewhat of a concern. Friday's final injury report should shed more light on Smith's chances of suiting up Sunday against the Panthers.

Smith (hip) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran lineman has dealt with his hip issue throughout the season, but he's yet to miss a game. The Bucs are managing Smith's reps carefully so as to nurse him through the season, so Wednesday's limited participation doesn't necessarily come as a surprise. The 32-year-old is likely to suit up in Week 9 against the Panthers barring unforeseen developments.

Smith (hip) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Carmen Vitali of the Buccaneers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith appears to have recovered from the hip injury that caused him to be limited in practice earlier this week. If Smith can continue to practice fully for the remainder of the week, the ten-year veteran will likely play a substantial role in the interior of Tampa's O-line during Sunday's season-opener against the Saints.
