Smartt caught two of his three yards in the 27-20 loss to the Raiders on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Smartt was technically listed as one of the starting tight ends alongside Gerald Everett, but that clearly was a false flag as nominal No. 2 tight end, Tre' McKitty, wound up out-snapping the undrafted rookie. It's hard to imagine Smartt earning an extended role provided the others above him on the depth chart stay healthy.

Smartt caught his lone target for six yards in Sunday's 30-27 loss to the Chiefs.

EDGE Analysis

The undrafted rookie actually wound up playing 19 snaps in his debut and was the only tight end to see a target, albeit a short dump off. Smartt's playing time will likely cease with the eventual return of Gerald Everett (groin).

Smartt (undisclosed) was activated off the reserve/non-football injury list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

The Chargers never announced why the undrafted rookie free agent missed the first 10 games of the season, but it's possible Smartt could see a number of offensive snaps in his debut with Gerald Everett (groin) questionable and Donald Parham (hamstring) on injured reserve. The 24-year-old actually played five games at wide receiver in his final year at Old Dominion and finished fourth on the team with 17 receptions for 167 yards.

The Chargers designated Smartt (undisclosed) to return from the reserve/non-football injury list Monday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smartt began the campaign on the NFI list due to an undisclosed injury, but it appears he could return to action before too long. With the move, the Chargers open a 21-day window for the tight end to be added to the active roster, but if he isn't, he'll revert back to the NFI list for the remainder of the campaign.

The Chargers placed Smartt (undisclosed) on the reserve/non-football injury list Tuesday, Jeff Miller of the Los Angeles Times reports.

EDGE Analysis

Smartt began training camp on the active/NFI list, but he's since shifted to the reserve list. He'll be forced to miss a minimum of four games.

Smartt (undisclosed) was placed on the non-football injury list Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear what type of issue Smartt is dealing with, though it happened away from the team facility. He'll compete for a depth role among the team's tight ends assuming he can return healthy during training camp.
