2023 Projections
Season over following IR placement
Smith (Achilles) is slated to miss the rest of the 2022-23 season after being placed on injured reserve, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Smith is now set to receive season-ending surgery next week on a nagging bone spur by his Achilles/heel. The Giants have since signed Ryder Anderson from the practice squad to their active roster in a corresponding move, but Smith will now aim to make a full recovery heading into the 2023-24 campaign.

It was a rough week for pass catchers around the league, but Washington's Ricky Seals-Jones looks like a solid TE1 until Logan Thomas returns from a hamstring injury.
2021 Fantasy Outlook
A fourth-round pick, Smith signed with the Giants in May and projects as an edge rusher who could see significant snaps if Lorenzo Carter isn't fully up to speed after tearing his Achilles last year.
