Smith recorded six receptions on 11 targets for 89 yards in Sunday's 24-21 loss to the Cowboys.
Smith led the Eagles in targets and also matched his season high. His longest catch of the day went for 41 yards, which came on an impressive catch deep down the right sideline as he was forced to adjust to an underthrown ball. Smith had a needed bounceback performance after struggling in Week 11, and he now has at least 65 receiving yards in four of his last five games while serving as Philadelphia's most consistent pass catcher.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Forgettable performance on SNF
Rotowire
Smith was held to eight yards on one reception (five targets) in Sunday's 16-9 win over the Lions.
Jalen Hurts made a concerted effort to feed disgruntled WR A.J. Brown (11 targets) the football in the win, leaving scraps for the remaining Philadelphia receivers in Sunday's low-scoring affair. Smith finished in a tie with Dallas Goedert for second in team targets, but the former's season-worst 20 percent catch rate was the main reason behind his struggles. Even with Sunday's dud, Smith still boasts an impressive 49-665-3 stat line in 10 starts this year.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: WRs to Start
Rotowire
A.J. Brown said on a live stream Tuesday night that "if you got me in Fantasy, get rid of me." We're not ready to do that yet, but it is time to consider Smith the best Eagles receiver heading into Week 11 -- and maybe the rest of the season. Smith has scored at least 14.4 PPR points in three games in a row and four times in his past five outings. The Lions have allowed seven receivers to score at least 13.2 PPR points this season, and Smith should be considered a solid No. 2 Fantasy receiver in the majority of leagues.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Game-high 69 yards plus TD
Rotowire
Smith finished with four receptions (on seven targets) for 69 yards and a touchdown in Monday's 10-7 win over Green Bay.
In a game that featured three points scored through three quarters, Smith finally broke the silence with a 34-yard touchdown grab early in the fourth. Fellow star wideout A.J. Brown (hamstring) returned to action after fully healing over the bye week, but his 2-13-0 receiving line didn't affect Smith's hot streak. The latter is averaging 6.2 receptions and 99.8 yards over his last five appearances for the Eagles. Smith is looking like a WR1 heading into another primetime matchup Week 11 when Philadelphia hosts Detroit.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Leading receiver in romp
Rotowire
Smith caught six of nine targets for 84 yards in Sunday's 38-20 win over the Giants.
With A.J. Brown (hamstring) sidelined, Smith led the Eagles in catches, targets and receiving yards, although he watched all four of Jalen Hurts' TD passes go to teammates. Philly gets a Week 9 bye, so Brown may not miss any further action, but the bigger issue for the defending champions might be the groin injury Saquon Barkley picked up in Sunday's win. Even if Barkley is healthy when the Eagles head to Green Bay in Week 10, Smith still sports an impressive 44-588-2 line on 55 targets through eight games as part of a surging passing attack.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: WRs to Sit
Rotowire
The Vikings are No. 1 in fewest Fantasy points allowed to opposing receivers, and this could be a tough week for Smith and A.J. Brown. I'll still start Brown in the majority of leagues as a No. 2 Fantasy receiver because he has at least eight targets in five games in a row. Smith has six targets or less in three games over that span, and he only has two outings this season with more than 9.3 PPR points. I would only start Smith in three-receiver leagues in Week 7 given the matchup.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Four catches in Week 6 loss
Rotowire
Smith secured four of five targets for 49 yards in the Eagles' 34-17 loss to the Giants on Thursday night.
Smith was third across the board to Dallas Goedert and A.J. Brown in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the night, and his overall numbers represented a significant downturn from his season-best effort against the Broncos on Sunday. Smith recorded exactly half of the receptions and targets he had in that contest, while his yardage tally was a sharp decline from the 114 he managed versus Denver. His first opportunity to bounce back will come against the Vikings in a Week 7 road matchup on Sunday, Oct. 19.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Stellar numbers in tough matchup
Rotowire
Smith secured eight of 10 targets for 114 yards in the Eagles' 21-17 loss to the Broncos on Sunday.
Smith shook off a highly undesirable matchup on paper to produce team-best totals in receptions, receiving yards and targets on the afternoon, as well as a season-long 52-yard catch. The Eagles' unusual pass-centric approach Sunday certainly helped Smith's numbers, but even on lower-volume days for the air attack, Smith has been the more consistent producer between him and A.J. Brown by far through Philadelphia's first five games. Smith will take a 25-272-1 receiving line on 30 targets into a favorable Week 6 road matchup against the Giants on Thursday night.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Finds end zone in Week 3
Rotowire
Smith recorded eight receptions on nine targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-26 win over the Rams.
The Eagles were forced into a more aggressive offensive game plan after they fell behind by three scores early in the fourth quarter. Smith and A.J. Brown both benefited, with the former chipping in as a reliable target closer to the line of scrimmage. Smith also provided the game-winning touchdown on a four-yard out with just under two minutes remaining in the game. Smith's production will remain volatile, but he should have strong performances when the Eagles are forced to take to the air more often.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Leads team with 53 yards Sunday
Rotowire
Smith corralled four of six targets for 53 yards in Sunday's 20-17 win over Kansas City.
Smith finished as the Eagles' leading receiver in a game during which his team threw for just 101 yards. It was a marked improvement from the veteran starter following last Thursday's three-catch, 16-yard stinker in a win over the Cowboys. Expect Smith and the entire Philadelphia passing attack to be more involved next Sunday lining up opposite the Rams' high-powered passing attack.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Limited to three catches in win
Rotowire
Smith secured all three targets for 16 yards in the Eagles' 24-20 win over the Cowboys on Thursday night.
As Smith's line corroborates, it was a quiet night for the speedster to open the 2025 campaign. Smith finished behind both Saquon Barkley and Dallas Goedert in receptions on the night, while No. 3 receiver Jahan Dotson outgained him by 43 yards on the same number of catches. Nevertheless, there's no question more productive days are ahead for Smith, and a Week 2 road rematch with a Chiefs team he recorded 69 yards and a touchdown against in Super Bowl LIX in February may provide just the platform for Smith's first noteworthy performance of the new season.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Not on injury report
Rotowire
Smith (groin) doesn't appear on the Eagles' injury report in advance of Thursday's game against the Cowboys.
That's also the case with A.J. Brown (hamstring), so the Eagles will indeed have both wideouts available for Week 1 action. As the coming season approaches, Smith and Brown remain the team's clear-cut top two options at their position, with Jahan Dotson, John Metchie and Darius Cooper rounding out Philadelphia's WR corps.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Returns to practice Sunday
Rotowire
Smith (back) is practicing Sunday, Zach Berman of The Athletic reports.
Smith had been out of practice since Monday while dealing with a tight back, though by the end of the week he was able to run with trainers and warm up with teammates. It appears the star wideout now is feeling well enough to return to practice, though it's not clear if he'll be limited at all. Regardless, there doesn't appear to be any reason for concern about his availability for the start of the regular season.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Nearing return to practice?
Rotowire
Smith (back) is missing a fourth straight practice Friday, but he's progressed to warming up with teammates and running with trainers, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
He first missed practice Monday, with reports attributing it to back soreness or a back contusion. It sounds like Smith will be back in practice soon enough, occupying his usual role as the No. 2 receiver in Philadelphia's narrowly concentrated offense.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Clear for Super Bowl
Rotowire
Smith (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's Super Bowl LIX matchup against the Chiefs.
Smith followed up no activity during the first week of Super Bowl prep with three consecutive capped sessions this week due to a hamstring injury. Despite the limitations along the way, he's cleared for Sunday's game, looking to build upon the 12-121-0 line on 12 targets that he's accrued so far in three playoff contests.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Another limited practice
Rotowire
Smith (hamstring) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday.
After sitting out the first week of Super Bowl prep due to a hamstring injury, Smith now has logged back-to-back capped sessions to begin this week, giving him only one more chance to get back to full participation or else risk entering the weekend with a designation for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Friday's practice report will reveal whether or not that comes to pass.
Smith (hamstring) was a limited participant at Wednesday's practice.
Smith was held out of all drills last week due to a hamstring injury, after which he didn't receive a game designation on last Friday's practice report for Super Bowl LIX. With some practice reps under his belt to begin this week, he appears to be ramping up his activity level in advance Sunday's game against the Chiefs. He may need to upgrade to full participation by Friday, however, to avoid taking a designation into the Super Bowl.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: No practice Thursday
Rotowire
Smith (hamstring) was a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Brooks Kubena of The Athletic reports.
The Eagles estimated Smith as a DNP on their first injury report of Super Bowl prep due to a hamstring issue, but he still will have four more chances to get back on the field and prove his health ahead of the team's matchup with the Chiefs on Sunday, Feb. 9. In three playoff games so far, he's tallied exactly four catches on each occasion on his way to a 12-121-0 line on 12 targets.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Four catches in NFCCG win
Rotowire
Smith caught all four of his targets for 45 yards in Sunday's 55-23 win over the Commanders in the NFC Championship Game.
Smith drew a pass interference penalty in the end zone late in the first half to set up a one-yard Jalen Hurts rushing touchdown on the next play. Besides that, Smith didn't make much of an impact as the Eagles scored seven rushing touchdowns and Hurts directed 16 of his 28 passes to either A.J. Brown or Dallas Goedert. Smith has just 66 receiving yards across his last two games heading into Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans on Feb. 9 after recording at least 55 receiving yards in five of six career playoff games prior to this two-game personal downturn.

Eagles' DeVonta Smith: Four grabs against Rams
Rotowire
Smith caught all four of his targets for 21 yards in Sunday's 28-22 divisional-round win over the Rams.
While it wasn't much, the production led all the Eagles' wide receivers on the day, as the team's offense continues to be carried on Saquon Barkley's shoulders. Smith has managed an 8-76-0 line on eight targets over Philly's two playoff games despite the limited volume available, and he might find more success in the NFC Championship Game against a Commanders secondary that had its issues during the regular season.
