Questionable to play Week 10 Smith (triceps) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Packers.

Impact Smith logged a trio of full practices during Week 10 prep, and the 2023 first-rounder is trending toward being activated from injured reserve ahead of Monday night's contest. He is in the final stages of his recovery from a triceps injury that caused him to miss the Eagles' last five games. Smith's return would result in less defensive snaps being available for Joshua Uche and Jihaad Campbell.

Impact Smith's 21-day window to return from injured reserve opened Tuesday. The third-year pro has opened Week 10 prep with back-to-back full practices, and he told reporters after Friday's practice that he expects to play against the Packers, per Zach Berman of The Athletic. Smith missed the Eagles' five games prior to the Week 9 bye due to a triceps injury that landed him on IR.

Returns to practice with full session Smith (triceps) was a full practice participant Thursday.

Impact Smith landed on IR due to a triceps injury in late September. He was designated to return to practice Tuesday and was a full participant in the Eagles' first practice of the week. The expectation when Smith went on IR was that he'd be able to return for this coming Monday's matchup against Green Bay, and that still appears to be in play, though Philadelphia would first have to activate the third-year linebacker off IR.

The Eagles will have 21 days to officially activate Smith before they would be required to keep him on injured reserve for the remainder of the season.

Cleared to practice Smith (concussion) participated in the Eagles' joint practice against the Browns on Wednesday.

Impact Smith has been sidelined due to a concussion, but his appearance in team drills Wednesday indicates that he has passed the league's five-step concussion protocol. The Georgia product is coming off a productive 2024 campaign in which he logged 42 total tackles and 6.5 sacks over 16 regular-season games and added 4.0 sacks across the Eagles' four postseason contests. Given his ability to work in team drills, Smith is tracking towards being available for Saturday's preseason game against the Browns.
