From the episode

But is she going to hold up for 17 games with that slight frame? And is she going to hold up as the guy that has to go beat Mann now, not just sit in the zone and be the guy for some of the matchups?

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Smith must prove he can be a true WR1 after A.J. Brown trade; durability concerns.

With A.J. Brown traded to the Patriots, Smith must step up as the true number one receiver; the concern is whether he can hold up for 17 games with his slight frame and whether he can beat man coverage, not just sit in zone as he did as a number two option.
