Smith (Achilles) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Matt Schneidman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
EDGE Analysis
Smith suffered an Achilles injury during Sunday's loss to the Ravens, and has been placed on season-ending injured reserve. The 28-year-old's absence could give Shilique Calhoun an opportunity for increased rotational snaps down the stretch.

Smith has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's game against the Ravens due to an Achilles injury.
EDGE Analysis
Smith's absence shouldn't have too much of an impact on the Raiders' defense, though Shilique Calhoun may be asked to play additional snaps behind Arden Key and Frostee Rucker.

Smith signed with the Raiders on Monday, Eddie Paskal of the Raiders' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was released by the Cardinals in late September. He appeared in three games with Arizona, totaling just one tackle. The Raiders are desperate for pass-rushing help, and they hope Smith -- who complied 13.5 sacks during his first two years in the league -- will aid their need.

Smith signed a contract with Arizona on Thursday, Darren Urban of the Cardinals' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Smith showed promise with Tampa Bay a few years back, recording 13.5 sacks across 27 games in 2014 and 2015. However, the defensive end has played in just four games the last three years and put up just a single tackle in two outings with the Lions in 2017. He'll be looking to earn a depth role with the Cardinals for the upcoming campaign.

EDGE Analysis
It's the second time Smith has been waived by the Lions this season, this time in order to make room for veteran defensive end George Johnson. Since re-joining the Lions in Week 9, Smith recorded two tackles in two contests, logging 68 defensive snaps in the process.

Smith signed a contract with the Lions on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was let go by the Lions on Saturday to open up a roster spot for Sunday's loss to the Steelers, but rejoins the team with guard Tim Lelito (thigh) headed to injured reserve. The 27-year-old should serve as defensive line depth and could also play a role on special teams.

Smith signed with the Lions on Wednesday, Field Yates of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
After being let go by the Bucs two weeks ago, Smith has found his new home. He hasn't played significant snaps since he logged 546 defensive snaps in 2015, though, and he likely will be used sparingly in Detroit as well.

Smith was waived by the Buccaneers on Wednesday, Greg Auman of the Tampa Bay Times reports.
EDGE Analysis
Smith is finally healthy again after battling an illness, but now he'll have to look for new employment. The Bucs were injury-riddled on their defensive front, with Robert Ayers (knee) and Noah Spence (shoulder) both missing time. Now that both are healthy, though, Smith isn't needed as added depth.
