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.

RANKS
Sees little usage
Smith failed to record a target during Sunday's 41-34 victory against the Lions.
ANALYSIS
Sunday marked the first time since Week 6 that Smith was held without a catch, and more concerning was a steep drop in playing time; Smith was only on the field for three snaps on offense. Tutu Atwell returned but only earned four snaps of his own, while Konata Mumpfield and his 32 snaps marked the highest usage out of the backup wideouts. Even with Davante Adams (hamstring) potentially unavailable for a pivotal Week 16 matchup on the road against division-rival Seattle, Smith's most likely contribution for the Rams will be on special teams.
