Smith (personal) was not listed on Wednesday's injury report.
Smith (personal) is inactive for Sunday night's contest against the Texans.
Very strong, aggressive and at times nasty in the trenches, he has enough size to play 3-4 defensive end (but could also play end in a 4-3 setup). He might even bulk up more and be able to line up inside. His versatility can also be used in coverage. Bigger, stronger O-linemen can blow him off the line on occasion, so he can sometimes struggle with leverage and pad level. Is a much better D-lineman than linebacker at this stage of his development.
Long Range Potential: Aggressive and versatile defensive end with upside.
