The Jets cut Smith (undisclosed) from the practice squad injured list Wednesday with an injury settlement, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was placed on the Jets' practice squad injured list Friday with an unspecified injury. The injury settlement allows the 2022 fourth-round pick to join a team in need of linebacker depth once he's fully healthy. Across his two regular-season appearances with the Eagles in 2023, Smith played 30 snaps on special teams and registered one tackle.

The Jets placed Smith (undisclosed) on the practice squad injured list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Smith appeared in 14 total games for the Panthers and Eagles over the previous two seasons, recording nine tackles (six solo) in that span.

Smith was waived by Carolina on Tuesday, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

After spending a fourth-round pick on Smith just one year ago, the team has decided to move on. The 22-year-old appeared in 12 games (one start) for Carolina last year, and he logged eight tackles before suffering a season-ending ankle injury.

Smith (ankle), who finished last season on IR, has been participating in OTAs, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 2022 fourth-round pick last saw game action in Week 14 of last year, but the 6-foot-3, 240-pounder is evidently past his ankle issue and has been spotted taking reps at inside linebacker during Carolina's OTAs. Prior to his injury, Smith logged eight tackles in 12 games.

Carolina placed Smith (ankle) on its injured reserve list Saturday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will now have to miss the remainder of the regular season recovering from an ankle injury he sustained during Carolina's win at Seattle in Week 14. The Panthers are still mathematically alive in the NFC playoff race, so it's not certain that the rookie fourth-rounder's season is over just yet.

Smith (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Steelers.

EDGE Analysis

Smith will be forced to miss Week 15 after suffering an ankle injury in the Panthers' Week 14 win over the Seahawks. In his absence, Cory Littleton (ankle) could see a slight uptick in usage versus Pittsburgh.

Smith (ankle) sustained an ankle injury during Sunday's win over the Seahawks, Augusta Stone of the Panthers' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith sustained an injury on a punt in the second half of Sunday's matchup and was unable to return down the stretch. It's unclear whether he'll be available next Sunday against Pittsburgh.

Smith (thigh) was not present on Carolina's injury report Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Smith had been dealing with a thigh injury since his rookie season kicked off and hasn't yet logged his debut snap, though it now appears he'll be ready to go Sunday versus New Orleans. While he's not expected to start any time soon, the uber-athletic linebacker out of Penn State should get a chance to contribute in the near future.

Smith (thigh) is listed as inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Giants.

EDGE Analysis

Smith has been dealing with a thigh injury since before the season officially kicked off. While the fourth-round pick out of Penn State was listed as active during Week 1, he did not take the field for his NFL debut. With the rookie linebacker on the sidelines, Cory Littleton might see increased reps.

Smith (thigh) did not practice Friday and is listed as doubtful for Week 2, Darin Gantt of Panthers.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smith was dealing with the same issue ahead of Carolina's opener and suited up for Week 1 anyways -- though the rookie fourth-rounder didn't log a snap versus Cleveland. It now appears the injury will keep him out of Sunday's game at the Giants entirely, in which case Cory Littleton may see increased reps.
