Tre'Quan Smith - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Visits with Tennessee Smith (undisclosed) visited the Titans on Friday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

Impact Smith spent last summer with the Lions but was placed on injured reserve with an undisclosed injury in August prior to being released in October. The 29-year-old wideout didn't resurface the rest of the season but appears healthy now as he looks for a new team. Smith hasn't played meaningful regular-season snaps since 2022 with the Saints, when he produced 19-278-1 receiving on 27 targets across 15 contests.

Let go by Detroit The Lions released Smith (undisclosed) from injured reserve Tuesday.

Impact Smith was placed on the Lions' injured reserve during training camp due to an unspecified injury. He was set to miss the entire regular season, but his release from IR means he can sign with a team once he's fully healthy. Smith's last full season was in 2022 with the Saints, during which he caught 19 passes (on 27 targets) for 278 yards and one touchdown over 15 regular-season games.

Lands on IR Smith (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.

Impact Smith's bid to make Detroit's final 53-man roster will come to an end with this move. Instead, the UCF product will now likely miss the entirety of the 2024 campaign unless he reaches an injury settlement with the team.

Moves off NFI list The Lions removed Smith (undisclosed) off the active/non-football injury list Wednesday.

Impact Just hours after being placed on Detroit's active/non-football injury list, Smith has been removed. He's now eligible to return to practice and participate in the Lions' training camp.

Shifts to NFI list The Lions placed Smith (undisclosed) on the active/non-football injury list Wednesday.

Impact There has been no report on the nature of Smith's injury or illness. The 28-year-old wideout appeared in just one game in 2023, playing 10 offensive snaps and failing to record a single stat. Once Smith returns to full health, he'll likely be competing for a depth role in Detroit's wide receiver room ahead of the team's 2024 campaign.

Reverts to practice squad Smith reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Monday.

Impact Smith played 10 offensive snaps versus the Chiefs on Sunday while filling in for Brandon Johnson (hamstring) but wasn't targeted at all. With Johnson now on injured reserve, Smith could be in line to be called up again following Denver's upcoming bye week.

OCTOBER 31, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jumps up to active roster Smith was elevated to the Broncos' active roster Saturday, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.

Impact Smith is now officially reunited with his former New Orleans head coach, Sean Payton. The veteran could be in for some opportunities immediately, with three separate Broncos wideouts currently on injured reserve ahead of Sunday's matchup. With the NFL trade deadline looming and both Jerry Jeudy and Courtland Sutton being rumored in deal talks to this point, Smith could elevate into an even more substantial pass-catching option depending on what transpires in the next handful of days.

OCTOBER 28, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Adds one catch Week 18 Smith hauled in his only target for six yards during Sunday's 10-7 loss to the Panthers.

Impact Smith logged his first target since the Week 12 loss to San Francisco. This also marked just his second catch over the final eight games of the season, as the fifth-year wideout's role sharply declined after the emergence of undrafted rookie Rasheed Shaheed during the second half of the season. Therefore, Smith finished with his worst season-long stat line since the 2019 campaign, recording 19 receptions (on 27 targets) for 278 yards and one touchdown over 15 games in 2022. The 2018 third-round pick also failed to record at least three touchdowns for the first time despite operating in an extremely undermanned receiving corps for most of the season. Smith is entering the second and final year of his current contract with New Orleans, and with ascending rookies in Smith and leading receiver Chris Olave on the roster, the 27-year-old figures to see another extremely limited role heading into the 2023 campaign.

JANUARY 9, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Minimal role in loss Smith logged zero targets during Sunday's 20-10 loss against the Steelers.

Impact Smith did not record a target for the first time this season during this poor showing for the Saints' offense. The 26-year-old also logged a season-low seven offensive snaps while playing behind Kevin White (31), Chris Olave (36) and Jarvis Landry (37), who returned from his five-week absence due to an ankle injury. As a result, Smith didn't get a chance to benefit from the absence of Marquez Callaway (coach's decision), and he could be relegated to a deep reserve role against the Rams next Sunday.

NOVEMBER 14, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Three catches in loss Smith gathered in three of four targets for 29 yards during Monday's 27-13 defeat to the Ravens.

Impact Smith tied with running back Alvin Kamara for the Saints' third most targets Monday. The 26-year-old also caught every ball thrown his way except for a tipped pass that was intercepted by Baltimore linebacker Justin Houston. While veteran Jarvis Landry (ankle) did not play for the fifth straight week, Smith still attracted fewer passes than fellow wideouts Chris Olave (nine) and Marquez Callaway (five). With Michael Thomas (toe) now set to miss the remainder of the season on IR, the 5-foot-11 Smith should once again amass a relatively moderate target share whether or not Landry returns against Pittsburgh on Sunday.

NOVEMBER 9, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

One target in win Smith failed to haul in his lone target on 38 snaps on offense snaps during Sunday's 24-0 victory against the Raiders.

Impact Smith saw less than two targets for the first time this season during this blowout win. While his production was limited, the 26-year-old still played the most offensive snaps of any Saints wide receiver, as Jarvis Landry (ankle) and Michael Thomas (foot) remained out for their fourth and fifth games in a row, respectively. Smith caught 14 of his 20 targets for 235 yards and a touchdown over the previous five contests, and he should continue to play a prominent role if Thomas and/or Landry remain sidelined for next Monday's game against Baltimore.

NOVEMBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Productive against Cardinals Smith secured five of six targets for 59 yards during the Saints' 42-34 loss to the Cardinals on Thursday.

Impact The 26-year-old saw increased playing time for a third consecutive week with Michael Thomas (foot) and Jarvis Landry (ankle) sidelined, and Smith had a season-high five receptions while topping 50 yards during the high-scoring matchup. The 2018 third-rounder's role during the Saints' Week 8 tilt against the Raiders likely will depend on whether Thomas and/or Landry are cleared to return.

OCTOBER 21, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Scores in spot start Smith caught all three of his targets for 43 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-26 loss to the Bengals.

Impact Smith benefited from the absence of three of the Saints' top wideouts Sunday, resulting in his first touchdown of the season. The 26-year-old got the start alongside Marquez Callaway, who finished with three catches (seven targets) for 36 yards. The collective statuses of Michael Thomas (foot), Jarvis Landry (ankle) and Chris Olave (concussion) will likely be in question heading into a matchup against Arizona on Thursday Night Football, which could result in another start for Smith in Week 7.

Extra reps open up Smith and Marquez Callaway served as the Saints' top receivers during walk-through drills ahead of Sunday's game against the Bengals, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

Impact After logging a season-high 66 percent of snaps on offense in the Saints' Week 5 win over the Seahawks while fellow wideouts Michael Thomas (foot) and Jarvis Landry (ankle) were out, Smith could see his playing time tick up even further Week 6. In addition to Thomas and Landry, rookie first-round pick Chris Olave (concussion) is inactive this week, and another depth wideout in Deonte Harty (foot) was recently moved to injured reserve. Of the five receivers who are active for the Saints this week, Smith and Callaway have combined for 12 of the 13 receptions the quintet has recorded this season.

OCTOBER 16, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Converts crucial third down Smith hauled in one of his four targets for 10 yards on 52 offensive snaps during Sunday's 39-32 win against the Seahawks.

Impact Smith saw the second most playing time amongst the Saints' banged-up corps of wide receivers in Week 5, as starters Michael Thomas (foot) and Jarvis Landry (ankle) were both ruled inactive and Chris Olave suffered a concussion in the third quarter. As a result, Smith played exclusively on offense for the first time this season while lining up alongside Marquez Callaway (56 offensive snaps); however, Smith did not record a catch until his final target in the fourth quarter, hauling in a 10-yard pass to convert a crucial third down on New Orleans' final offensive drive. The 26-year-old also had a 12-yard reception wiped out by a hands-to-the-face penalty on left tackle James Hurst. Smith will continue to see increased usage if the Saints' starting wideouts remain sidelined in Week 6.

OCTOBER 11, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited role in return Smith recorded one reception on two targets for 18 yards during Sunday's 28-25 loss to Minnesota.

Impact Smith played just 14 of the Saints' 60 offensive snaps after sustaining a concussion last week and clearing protocols Friday. As a result, the 6-foot-2 speedster was unable to capitalize on his opportunity for a bigger role with No. 1 wideout Michael Thomas (foot) sidelined Sunday. Smith suffered a shoulder injury at the end of the preseason that sidelined him for New Orleans' first two games, though he caught four of his five targets for 105 yards before exiting in Week 3. The fifth-year pass catcher will have a full week to rest and recover before Sunday's game against Seattle.

OCTOBER 4, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Full participant again Smith (concussion) was a full participant in Friday's practice and doesn't carry an injury designation for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

Impact Smith made his season debut last week against Carolina and secured four of five targets for 105 yards before sustaining a concussion. Although he was limited at Wednesday's practice, he was a full participant Thursday and Friday and has cleared the league's concussion protocol. He'll likely have a chance to handle an increased role Sunday against Minnesota because Michael Thomas (foot) has been ruled out.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Upgrades to full practice Smith (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.

Impact The Saints haven't yet announced whether Smith has fully cleared the league's concussion protocol, but his upgraded activity Thursday is a clear step in the right direction. Michael Thomas (foot) did not practice again while Jarvis Landry (ankle) was limited Thursday, so Smith could be facing increased opportunities versus Minnesota in Week 4, as long as he's healthy.

SEPTEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited practice Wednesday Smith (concussion) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.

Impact Smith suffered a concussion in the Week 3 loss to the Panthers, but his ability to practice in limited fashion Wednesday implies that he's made at least some progress through the five-step protocol. He'll still have to upgrade to full activity and gain clearance from an independent neurologist to have a chance at playing Sunday against the Vikings. If Smith is ready to go, he could step into a prominent role while the statuses of fellow wideouts Michael Thomas (toe) and Jarvis Landry (foot) are uncertain.

Suffers concussion Smith exited Sunday's game against the Panthers with a concussion and has been ruled out, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact Nearly the entire Saints receiving corps suffered an injury at some point during the game, as Jarvis Landry (ankle) and Michael Thomas (foot) also exited. Smith had an impressive four-catch and 105-yard performance but was hurt late in the fourth quarter at the conclusion of a 48-yard reception. Smith will need to clear the league's concussion protocol in order to suit up for Week 4 against the Vikings.

SEPTEMBER 25, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

No injury designation for Week 3 Smith doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.

Impact Smith logged a full practice Friday for the first time during the regular season and is slated to make his season debut Sunday. Over the last four seasons, the 2018 third-round pick has totaled 112 receptions for 1,486 yards and 17 touchdowns. However, he'll have a tough time garnering many targets behind Michael Thomas, Chris Olave and Jarvis Landry during the 2022 campaign.

SEPTEMBER 23, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Limited Thursday Smith (shoulder) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.

Impact As he did last week, Smith has kicked off this week with back-to-back capped sessions. It remains to be seen if he'll get back to full at Friday's practice, but after getting the LP treatment three times during Week 2 prep, it wasn't enough to be active this past Sunday against the Buccaneers. In any case, Friday's injury report may give a sense of Smith's chances to suit up Sunday in Carolina.
