News

  • Ready to play Sunday

    Smoot (wrist) has been deemed active ahead of Sunday's game against Detroit.

    Analysis: Smoot spent the last four games on injured reserve with a wrist injury. But, he was activated Saturday and will be ready to play at his earliest possible opportunity. Across seven appearances this season, Smoot has logged 12 tackles and 1.5 sacks. He should once again rotate behind starting defensive ends Greg Rousseau and A.J. Epenesa.

  • Activated for Week 15

    Smoot (wrist) has been activated from injured reserve Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions, but he remains questionable to suit up.

    Analysis: Smoot has been sidelined on IR since Week 9 due to a wrist injury, but he'll have the chance to return to the gridiron in this matchup against one of the best offenses in the NFL. He's logged seven appearances for the Bills this season, racking up 12 tackles (eight solo), 1.5 sacks and one forced fumble.

  • Designated for return

    Bills head coach Sean McDermott said Wednesday the team is designating Smoot (wrist) for return from injured reserve, Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Smoot has been sidelined on IR since Week 9 due to a wrist injury, making Sunday's road matchup against the Lions his earliest possible return date. He can be activated to the 53-man roster at any point during his 21-day practice window.

  • Officially placed on IR

    The Bills placed Smoot (wrist) on injured reserve Tuesday.

    Analysis: Smoot injured his wrist during the Bills' Week 9 win over the Dolphins. He'll be forced to miss at least the next four regular-season games, and the earliest he can return is Week 15 against the Lions on Sunday, Dec. 15. Across seven regular-season outings, Smoot tallied 12 tackles (eight solo), including 1.5 sacks, and one forced fumble.

  • Heading to IR

    Head coach Sean McDermott said Monday that Smoot is set to undergo wrist surgery and will be placed on injured reserve, Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Smoot failed to record a stat across 22 defensive snaps before exiting the Bills' Week 9 win over the Dolphins with a wrist injury. McDermott's comments Monday indicate the issue is serious, and Smoot will be forced to miss Buffalo's next four games if he moves to IR as expected. Von Miller will likely see increased work as a rotational edge rusher while Smoot is sidelined for the foreseeable future.

  • Exits with wrist injury

    Smoot left Sunday's 30-27 win over the Dolphins early due to a wrist injury.

    Analysis: The severity of Smoot's injury is unknown at this time. His status for the Bills' Week 10 game versus the Colts is seemingly up in the air as a result.

  • Good to go for Week 3

    Smoot (toe) was a full participant in Saturday's practice and does not carry an injury designation into Monday's game against the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Smoot was held out of the Bills' first two regular-season games due to a toe injury he sustained in early September. He was limited in practice Thursday and Friday, and his full participation Saturday allowed him to shed an injury tag heading into Monday's contest. Smoot and Von Miller will provide rotational depth at defensive end behind starters Greg Rousseau and A.J. Epenesa.

  • Still tending to injury

    Smoot (toe) was limited during practice Thursday.

    Analysis: Smoot has yet to play this season and first popped up on the Bills' injury report Sept. 6 ahead of their Week 1 win over the Cardinals. His ability to get on the practice field at least shows he's making progress in his recovery, but it might not be enough to get him on the field Monday against the Jaguars. More clarity on his ability to debut with Buffalo in Week 3 should come Friday or Saturday.

  • Won't play Thursday

    Smoot (toe) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Dolphins, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.

    Analysis: Smoot was considered unlikely to play as of Monday, so this announcement doesn't come as much of a surprise. The Illinois product also missed Week 1's win over the Cardinals with the injury. He'll now focus on a Week 3 return against the Jaguars.

  • Likely missing Week 2

    Head coach Sean McDermott said Monday that Smoot (toe) is trending towards not playing in Thursday's game against the Dolphins, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Smoot was unable to suit up for the Bills' Week 1 win over the Cardinals, and it now appears his toe issue could hold him out for the second consecutive game Thursday. If Smoot is unable to go in Week 2, expect Von Miller and Casey Toohill to see increased work as rotational pass rushers.

  • Won't play Week 1

    Smoot (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Smoot practiced in full Wednesday and Thursday, but he popped up on Friday's injury report with a toe injury, which appears severe enough for him to be sidelined for Week 1. Casey Toohill and Von Miller will be the primary backup defensive ends Sunday behind starters Greg Rousseau and A.J. Epenesa.

  • Dealing with toe issue

    Smoot (toe) didn't practice Friday and is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Smoot popped up on Buffalo's injury report Friday after practicing in full both Wednesday and Thursday, and it now appears his Week 1 availability is in jeopardy due to a toe issue. If Smoot is unable to go Sunday, expect Casey Toohill to see increased reps as a rotational defensive end.

  • Headed to Buffalo

    Smoot signed a one-year deal with the Bills on Friday, Alec White & Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Smoot, who spent the past seven seasons with the Jaguars, will provide the Bills with added defensive-line depth ahead of the 2024 campaign. The 2017 third-rounder is coming off a 2023 regular season in which he recorded just 10 tackles, including a sack, in 12 contests, but with Buffalo, Smoot should have a chance to contribute as a rotational pass rusher.

  • Placed on IR

    Smoot (Achilles) was placed on injured reserve Monday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.

    Analysis: Smoot suffered a torn Achilles in Thursday's victory over the Jets, but Monday's move to IR officially brings his season to an end. The 27-year-old will finish his 2022 campaign with 21 tackles, including five sacks, while also recording two pass deflections, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery over 15 contests. In his absence, Arden Key and Corey Peters will likely see an increase in usage moving forward.

  • Confirms Achilles tear

    Smoot announced Sunday via his personal Instagram account that he suffered a season-ending torn right Achilles' tendon in Thursday's win over the Jets.

    Analysis: The loss of Smoot is a significant blow to the Jacksonville defense, as the 27-year-old co-led the team in sacks (five) and ranked second in pressures. Given the nature and timing of his injury, Smoot could face an uphill battle to gain clearance for Week 1 of the 2023 season while he recovers from surgery.

  • Torn Achilles feared

    Smoot is feared to have suffered a torn Achilles in Thursday's win over the Jets, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Smoot is slated to undergo an MRI on Friday after he departed Thursday's matchup against the Jets with an apparent non-contact lower-body injury. The 27-year-old was in the midst of yet another productive season for Jacksonville, but depending on the test results, there's a decent chance that Smoot played his last game of the 2022-23 campaign in Week 16. If a torn Achilles is indeed confirmed, Arden Key and Corey Peters could receive more reps on the Jaguars' defensive line behind starters Roy…read more

  • Suffers apparent leg injury

    Smoot was carted off the field with an apparent leg injury late in the fourth quarter of Thursday's 19-3 win over the Jets, Mia O'Brien of 1010 XL 92.5 FM Jacksonville reports.

    Analysis: Smoot suffered a non-contact injury in the final moments of Thursday's win, so there was no official diagnosis from the team. Coach Doug Pederson did not provide any additional details in his postgame comments, though there should be clarity on Smoot's status in the coming days. He managed one tackle prior to his exit.

  • Returns from COVID list

    The Jaguars activated Smoot (undisclosed) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

    Analysis: Smoot is now clear to return to team facilities, making him eligible to take the field for Sunday's season finale against the Colts. He has five sacks through 15 appearances.

  • Put on COVID list

    Smoot was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.

    Analysis: That means the Jaguars' entire starting defensive line is on the COVID list ahead of Week 17. Jacksonville will likely call up replacements from the practice squad, but Roy Robertson-Harris and Adam Gotsis should be quite busy against the Patriots.

  • Enters sack column

    Smoot had three tackles (two solo) and 1.5 sacks during Sunday's 37-19 loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: Smoot had only three tackles across the first four weeks of the season, but he matched that total Sunday while playing a season-high 64 percent of the defensive snaps. The 26-year-old posted 5.5 sacks for the Jaguars in 2020, and he could reach a similar total this season while filling a rotational role at defensive end.

  • Not leaving Jacksonville

    The Jaguars are re-signing Smoot to a two-year, $14 million contract, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Smoot is coming off a career year, having notched 25 tackles (21 solo), 5.5 sacks, two forced fumbles and a fumble recovery across 16 contests in 2020. Still, unless his tackle or sack totals dramatically increase next season, he won't have much value in IDP formats.

  • Leads defense in sacks

    Smoot had two solo tackles in the season finale against the Colts and had 25 tackles (21 solo) and 5.5 sacks in 16 games this season.

    Analysis: The 25-year-old ended up leading Jacksonville in sacks and was the only player on the team to record more than 2.5 sacks this season. He also had two forced fumbles, but his sack total went down from 2019 despite playing abut 250 more defensive snaps. Smoot will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason and is likely to fill a rotational role at defensive end wherever he lands in 2021.

  • Records six sacks in 2019

    Smoot had 17 tackles (12 solo), six sacks and one fumble recovery in 16 games this season.

    Analysis: The 2017 third-round pick began the season without a sack in 24 career games, but he took advantage of increased defensive snaps in 2019. Smoot found success despite working as a rotational defensive end, and he could be in line for a larger workload in 2020 given the impending free agency of Yannick Ngakoue.
