2025 Fantasy Outlook
Year 2 for the Florida A&M product saw Smith finally break out of the practice squad, landing a role as the Rams' return man. He accumulated a solid 333 combined yards of return yardage, four rushes for 36 yards and a pair of catches for six yards in 17 games, including playoffs. A sudden breakout into the starting lineup seems unlikely for the 27-year-old, however, and his value for the Rams will continue to stem from his contributions as a return man while securing a handful of snaps on offense per game.

Leading receiver on MNF
Smith had four receptions on six targets for 67 yards while returning three punts for 23 yards in Monday's 27-24 loss to Atlanta.
ANALYSIS
Smith was shockingly the game's leading receiver in a Monday Night Football matchup that featured star receivers Puka Nacua and Drake London. The 27-year-old Smith's six targets were the most he has seen in a pro game to date. The return specialist was the biggest beneficiary of WR Davante Adams' (hamstring) absence after Tutu Atwell and Konata Mumpfield were held to two catches for 10 yards combined in Monday's loss. Smith appears to be the backup most likely to step up behind Nacua if Adams remains sidelined against Arizona on Sunday for the final game of the regular season.
