Smith (neck) was a limited participant in practice Wednesday, Michael Gehlken of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
Smith played 48 of 64 defensive snaps for the Raiders in Sunday's victory over the Titans and apparently suffered the injury during the game after not being on the injury report last week. The veteran corner was targeted four times and allowed two catches for four yards, with the Raiders hoping he'll be ready to go and can continue that level of play against the Jets on Sunday.

Smith was charged with assault on Thursday, Scott Bair of CSN Bay Area reports.
EDGE Analysis
It's unclear exactly how the charges against Smith will impact his ability to play this season. At this point, his status is merely in question, since it isn't clear yet how things will pan out.

Smith (shoulder) is absent from the Raiders' inactive list for Monday night's game against the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was deemed questionable for Monday's contest after being limited in practice throughout the week. However, the shoulder injury that kept him out of Week 9's win over the Broncos will not keep him sidelined Monday. He will presumably take on his usual role starting at cornerback.

Smith (shoulder) is questionable to play Monday night against the Texans, Jimmy Durkin of the Bay Area News Group reports.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was limited in every practice this week, but is still expected to play. However, if he's ultimately ruled out, look for both D.J. Hayden and TJ Carrie to see a significant uptick in snaps.

Smith (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game against Denver.
EDGE Analysis
Smith was originally expected to miss at least a week after injuring his shoulder in last Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. After participating in practice Thursday and Friday on a limited basis there's reason to be optimistic about his game status. If he's eventually ruled out look for TJ Carrie to fill in at cornerback.

Smith (shoulder) was limited at practice Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
Smith's limited participation in practice is a bit of a surprise after the team indicated he was expected to miss Sunday's game against the Chargers. If he's able to notch another limited participation on Friday he may be able to give it a go come Sunday.

The Raiders are optimistic that Smith will only miss a week of action after he injured his shoulder in Sunday's win over the Buccaneers, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Smith has not officially been ruled out of Sunday's matchup with the Broncos, but it does not sound like the Raiders plan on having him available at this point. However, the team sounds hopeful he will not miss an extended period of time. TJ Carrie will presumably fill in for Smith at cornerback if he indeed cannot play.
