Rapoport notes that Smith would possibly work out previous to the sport on Sunday to see if he can go. Mike Garafolo provides that there’s “no definitive ruling as of now however [Smith] has work to do to play on this one.”
Smith, who’s been coping with a hamstring situation, was formally dominated questionable to play on the Eagles’ closing damage report. He missed Wednesday’s observe earlier than being restricted on Thursday and Friday.
Potentially being with out Smith isn’t supreme; the Eagles will seemingly want all arms on deck to beat the Ravens. With Johnny Wilson additionally dominated out, Philadelphia is perhaps down to only the next large receivers: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Britain Covey, Ainias Smith, and Parris Campbell. The Eagles might look to essentially lean into operating the ball (as they normally do) and using extra two tight finish units on this sport.
If he doesn’t play this weekend, maybe we’ll see Smith return in Week 14 or Week 15. His progress in observe factors to him being again on the sector prior to later, although hamstring accidents can clearly be tough.
