The Patriots signed Smith to the practice squad Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was waived from the Jets' practice squad Dec. 2. The former Jet may have a chance for a revenge game this Sunday, as the wide receiver is a prime candidate for practice squad elevation with Kayshon Boutte (concussion) and DeMario Douglas (hamstring) both nursing injuries ahead of the contest.

The Jets cut Smith from their practice squad Tuesday, Eric Allen of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
In a corresponding transaction, the Jets signed cornerback Samuel Womack to their practice squad. Smith was waived from the Jets' active roster back in October before re-signing with the practice squad mere days later, so he could be a candidate to be brought back into the organization at some point down the line.

The Jets signed Smith to the practice squad Thursday, per the NFL's transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was waived by the Jets on Tuesday after signing to their active roster Saturday, but he has opted to stay in New York as a member of the practice squad after clearing waivers. Smith has appeared in two regular-season games and logged 21 snaps (eight on offense, 13 on special teams) across that span.

The Jets waived Smith on Tuesday, Susanna Welr of the team's official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was signed to the active roster ahead of Sunday's game at Cincinnati when Josh Reynolds (hip) was placed on injured reserve, but he's now been let go than a week later, as the Jets head into their bye week.

The Jets signed Smith from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Smith's addition to the active roster corresponds with the Jets placing Josh Reynolds (hip) on injured reserve. Smith was elevated to the Jets' active roster for Week 6 against the Broncos and played 12 snaps on special teams without showing up on the box score otherwise. He'll give the Jets an additional body on special teams, but he could also be in the mix for snaps on offense against the Bengals on Sunday due to the absences of Reynolds and Garrett Wilson (knee).

Smith reverted to the Jets' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was elevated to the active roster ahead of the team's 13-11 loss to the Broncos on Sunday, failing to record any stats while playing 12 snaps with the special-teams unit. With fellow wide receiver Garrett Wilson (knee) expected to miss a couple weeks, it's possible that Smith could be elevated again for New York's matchup with the Panthers in Week 7.

The Jets elevated Smith from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's Smith's first elevation of the season, and he is in line to make his 2025 regular-season debut against the Broncos on Sunday in London, England. The 26-year-old wideout logged 10 catches (on 13 targets) for 113 yards through three preseason games with the Jets but was unable to crack the 53-man roster at the end of training camp.

Smith signed with the Jets' practice squad Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Smith has played just one game since entering the league in 2021. The 26-year-old receiver had a solid preseason with a team-high 10 receptions (13 targets) for 113 yards through three games. This will be his second straight year on the Jets' practice squad.

Smith was waived Tuesday, Randy Lange and Eric Allen of the Jets' official site report.
EDGE Analysis
Smith's strong preseason play wasn't enough for him to secure a spot on the Jets' 53-man roster. The 26-year-old wideout appeared in one regular-season game for the Jets in 2024 and is a candidate to land on the practice squad if he doesn't garner interest on waivers.

Smith caught five of six targets for 48 yards in Saturday's 31-12 preseason loss to the Giants.
EDGE Analysis
Smith tied Quentin Skinner for the team lead in receiving yards Saturday. Despite the unsettled nature of the Jets' wide receiver depth chart, Smith's almost certainly on the outside looking in when projecting the team's 53-man roster for the regular season. He'll look to bolster his chances of making the team in Friday's preseason finale against the Eagles.
