Stone Smartt: Everything you need to know

Smartt is slated to sign a one-year deal with the Eagles, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Smartt, who spent the first three years of his NFL career with the Chargers, recorded seven catches (on nine targets) for 52 yards in 15 games during his lone campaign with the Jets in 2025. This coming season, the 6-foot-4, 226-pounder will provide added depth to a Philadelphia TE corps that continues to be led by Dallas Goedert, with Grant Calcaterra and Johnny Mundt currently next up in the pecking order.

Smartt caught seven of nine targets for 52 yards while dressing for 15 games in the 2025 season. Smartt played mostly on special teams and drew at least one target in only three of his 15 appearances for the Jets. He spent the previous three seasons with the Chargers and has just one touchdown catch in 53 regular-season NFL games. The 27-year-old Smartt's set to become an unrestricted free agent in the offseason.

Smartt caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 42-10 loss to the Patriots. Smartt has stepped up in the absence of Mason Taylor (neck), catching seven of eight targets for 52 yards over the past two games. Prior to this relatively productive stretch, Smartt had just one target all season. Smartt and Jeremy Ruckert could maintain larger roles if Taylor sits out the regular-season finale against the Bills.
