News: 14 hours agoSmith (hamstring) isn't participating in Monday's practice, Tim McManus of ESPN.com reports.
Spin: Smith and Makai Lemon (hamstring) will both remain sidelined Monday, clearing the way for Dontayvion Wicks and Hollywood Brown to see more reps with the first-team offense. Though Smith hasn't practiced in a week, the Eagles haven't expressed any concern about the wideout's availability for the start of the regular season.
ESPN Fantasy Projection: It's generally tough for a former Heisman Trophy winner and first-round draft pick to fly under the radar, but that has been the case for Smith in recent years. With all eyes on A.J. Brown, Smith has finished no lower than 30th among receivers in fantasy PPG in each of his five seasons (top 30 in PPG each of the last four). The "slim reaper" saw a big dip in touchdowns last season (four, after at least seven the prior three seasons), but remained very efficient (career 9.1 yards per target and 2.1 yards per route run). Smith has handled roughly one-quarter of the Eagles' targets throughout his career, and that may rise slightly after Brown was traded to New England. Smith, 27, is the Eagles' No. 1 receiver for the first time as a non-rookie and is well positioned for a strong WR2 campaign.
