The Jets placed Smith on injured reserve Saturday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports. Smith suffered a neck injury in Week 10 against the Cardinals, and he has missed the Jets' last two games as a result. He'll be forced to miss the next four games and is eligible to return for Week 17 against the Bills on Sunday, though Rich Cimini of ESPN.com posits that Smith is likely done for the rest of the 2024 regular season. Smith signed a one-year contract with the Jets in March after spending the first 13 years of his career with the Cowboys, who selected him in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft.

The Jets placed Smith on injured reserve Saturday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports. Smith suffered a neck injury in Week 10 against the Cardinals, and he has missed the Jets' last two games as a result. He'll be forced to miss the next four games and is eligible to return for Week 17 against the Bills on Sunday, though Rich Cimini of ESPN.com posits that Smith is likely done for the rest of the 2024 regular season. Smith signed a one-year contract with the Jets in March after spending the first 13 years of his career with the Cowboys, who selected him in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft.
Smith (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Seattle, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Smith underwent an MRI on his neck following the Jets' Week 10 loss to the Cardinals. He has been unable to practice since the injury, and head coach Jeff Ulbrich said Wednesday that the injury is severe enough for Smith to be considered a candidate to go on injured reserve, per Eric Allen of the Jets' official site. Olu Fashanu will continue to start at left tackle due to Smith's injury.
Coach Jeff Ulbrich said Wednesday that Smith is still getting tests on the neck injury he sustained in Week 10 at Arizona, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports. Smith already sat out the Jets' last game before their bye in Week 12, and it seems likely at this point he's going to miss more time as he tends to his neck issue. Until he can play again, rookie first-rounder Olu Fashanu figures to continue to start at tackle in Smith's place.
Smith (neck) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Colts, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. Smith's absence Sunday comes as no surprise, as the 33-year-old offensive lineman was unable to practice all week after sustaining a neck injury in the Jets' Week 10 loss to the Cardinals. Expect 2024 first-round pick Olu Fashanu to protect Aaron Rodgers' blindside in Week 11 while Smith is sidelined.
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.
Smith (neck) is doubtful to return to Sunday's contest against the Cardinals. Smith suffered a neck injury during Sunday's game and it looks like his day has come to an end in all likelihood. In the meantime, Olu Fashanu will handle the right tackle spot versus Arizona.
Smith got a veteran rest day Thursday and was a limited participant in practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports. The starting left tackle missed a day of practice early in training camp with an undisclosed injury but is not injured now. Smith should be in line to start Monday night against the 49ers. The five-time All-Pro has started all 161 games he's played in during his career.
Smith (undisclosed) was not on the field for team drills at training camp Tuesday, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports. Smith hasn't worked on the field for three days as a result of undisclosed tightness, according to head coach Robert Saleh. Smith is coming off of a resurgent 2023 campaign with the Cowboys, but he's dealt with injuries in recent years, so the developments at camp with New York are somewhat alarming.
