Smith suffered another hamstring injury and sat out Week 7, with the Eagles still waiting to provide a recovery timeline. Hamstring aggravations typically cause a player to miss even more action than the initial injury; Smith was sidelined for two games the first time, so it's logical to expect multiple weeks missed with this one. Given the Eagles offense will be led by backup quarterbacks for the remainder of the season, it's difficult to envision Smith producing like he did early in the season. Boone recommends selling low rather than waiting for his return and hoping for the best, suggesting managers package Smith with another piece, accept the lost value based on draft position, and take a clean slate into the second half of the season.

WR1 for the Eagles when healthy, but has reinjured his hamstring multiple times this season. Coach Nick Sirianni gave a non-committal response when asked about potentially shutting down Smith for the remainder of the season, stating 'We'll see where that goes. He works extremely hard. sometimes the process doesn't always produce the results that you want.' Sirianni did not dismiss the shutdown possibility entirely, creating a non-zero chance of extended absence given the team's lost year status.
