Tyron Smith: Everything you need to know

Smith (neck) announced Tuesday that he has decided to retire from the NFL as a member of the Cowboys, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Smith will sign a one-day contract with Dallas to retire as a member of the organization with which he spent the first 13 years of his NFL career before his single-season stint with the Jets in 2024. Now retiring with five All-Pros and eight Pro Bowls to his name, Smith consistently ranked as one of the league's top options at left tackle since being selected in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft. Longtime teammate Zack Martin also announced his retirement this offseason.

Smith (neck) did not participate at practice Wednesday. Per Connor Hughes of SNY.tv, coach Jeff Ulbrich said Wednesday that Smith is getting additional imaging done to assess the neck injury he sustained in Week 10 at Arizona. If he can't return to practice Thursday or Friday, he likely won't be able to play Sunday against the Colts.

Smith will get an MRI exam for the neck injury he sustained during Sunday's game at Arizona, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Smith was forced out of the Jets' contest in Week 10 early by the injury, and now doctors are trying to determine the precise severity of the issue. The team will likely have an update on his status by the time they release their first official practice report of the week Wednesday.
