Impact Meanwhile, fellow tight end Hunter Henry parlayed his 32 snaps into two catches on three targets for 25 yards. As long as he continues to split work with Henry, Smith -- who has logged two targets in each of his last three games -- remains a risky fantasy option.

Suits up Thursday Smith (shoulder) is listed as active for Thursday night's game against the Falcons.

Impact The tight end is out there if you need him Thursday after a one-game absence, but his fantasy ceiling is capped while working in a timeshare with Hunter Henry. It's an arrangement that has resulted in Smith averaging 2.3 catches for 21.4 yards on 3.8 targets per game, while scoring one TD through nine contests.

Questionable, traveling to Atlanta Smith (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game in Atlanta and is traveling with the team, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Smith has battled the shoulder injury for almost a month now, finally missing a game Sunday when the Patriots beat the Browns by 38 points. Hunter Henry caught two TD passes in the contest and played 94 percent of offensive snaps before the fourth quarter, but he'll likely lose some of his workload if Smith makes it back Thursday night. Smith has scored just one TD of his own this year, averaging 2.3 catches for 21.4 yards on 3.8 targets per game.

Another limited practice Smith (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.

Impact Smith's practice reps have been capped since picking up a shoulder injury in Week 9 at Carolina. Despite getting on the field in every session of Week 10 prep, he was inactive this past Sunday against the Browns. It's unclear if he's facing a similar fate for Thursday's game In Atlanta, but if Smith is unable to play, Hunter Henry will take on even more responsibility at tight end for the Patriots.

Listed as limited on practice estimate Smith (shoulder) was listed as a limited on Monday's practice estimate.

Impact Though Smith was able to practice in a limited fashion last week, he was inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns. With that in mind, we'd expect him to approach this Thursday night's game against the Falcons listed as questionable, and if he remains out Week 11, Hunter Henry would be in line to continue to head the Patriots' tight end corps, with Devin Asiasi and Matt LaCosse in reserve.

Won't play Sunday Smith (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Browns.

Impact With Smith inactive Sunday, look for Hunter Henry to see added snaps and looks versus the Browns, while Devin Asiasi and Matt LaCosse are on hand to handle the team's complementary tight end duties in Week 10.

Listed as questionable for Week 10 Smith (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Browns after practicing in a limited fashion this past week.

Impact Smith has been managing a shoulder issue of late, but we'd still expect him to be available for Sunday's 1:00 ET kickoff. That said, the tight end remains a hit-or-miss fantasy option while continuing to work in a timeshare with Hunter Henry.

NOVEMBER 12, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Limited at practice Wednesday Smith (shoulder) was limited at practice Wednesday.

Impact Smith was forced out of this past Sunday's win over the Panthers after playing 28 snaps and one catch on two targets for four yards. The fact that he practiced Wednesday in some capacity bodes well for his chances of suiting up this weekend against the Browns. If he does, Smith will continue to work in a timeshare with fellow tight end Hunter Henry.

Hurts shoulder Sunday Smith exited Sunday's game against the Panthers with a shoulder injury.

Impact Smith has been managing a shoulder injury of late, so his departure from Sunday's contest may be due to an aggravation of the issue. Prior to his exit, Smith caught one of his two targets for four yards. In his absence, added tight end looks are available for Hunter Henry.

Active versus Panthers Smith (shoulder) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Panthers.

Impact The tight end has been managing a shoulder issue of late, but he'll continue to work though it Sunday. In last week's win over the Chargers, Smith logged 49 of a possible Patriots' 77 snaps on offense, while catching both of his targets for 13 yards. Given that he continues to work in a timeshare with Hunter Henry (50 snaps in Week 8), Smith remains a hit-or-miss fantasy option.

Listed as questionable Smith (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Panthers after practicing in a limited fashion this past week.

Impact The tight end was also limited in practice last week before suiting up for the Patriots' Week 8 win over the Chargers, en route playing 49 of the Patriots' 77 snaps on offense and catching both of his targets for 13 yards. We'd expect him to suit up this weekend as well, though in the context of working in a timeshare with Hunter Henry, Smith continues to profile as a hit-or-miss fantasy option.

Limited at practice Wednesday Smith (shoulder) logged a limited practice session Wednesday.

Impact Smith was limited at practice last week as well before suiting up for this past Sunday's win over the Chargers, en route to logging 49 of a possible 77 snaps on offense and catching both of his targets for 13 yards. With no reported setbacks in that contest, we'd expect him to continue to work in a timeshare with Hunter Henry this weekend against the Panthers, but Smith will need to practice fully be the end of the week in order to avoid a Week 9 injury designation.

NOVEMBER 3, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Two catches in Week 8 Smith was on the field for 49 of a possible 77 snaps on offense in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Chargers, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.

Impact In the process, Smith caught both of his targets for 13 yards, while fellow tight end Hunter Henry (50 snaps) recorded one catch for 33 yards on three targets. In the context of working in a timeshare, Smith continues to profile as a hit-or-miss fantasy option as this coming Sunday's game against the Panthers approaches.

NOVEMBER 1, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Suits up Sunday Smith (shoulder) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Chargers.

Impact Smith, who logged limited practices this past week, will be out there if you need him Sunday, but his weekly fantasy ceiling has thus far has been capped while operating in a timeshare with Hunter Henry. Through seven contests, Smith has caught 18 of his 30 targets for 176 yards and a TD, while Henry has recorded a 24/264/4 stat line in that span.
