Logs full practice Smith (ankle) returned to a full practice Thursday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports.

Impact Per Erik Bacharach of The Tennessean, the tight end took part in Wednesday's stretch but headed back inside the team's facility immediately afterward. With a full practice Thursday under his belt, Smith will set his sights on bouncing back from the one-catch, 13-yard effort he logged in this past Sunday's win over the Texans prior to his third-quarter exit. Heading into that contest, Smith had recorded a fantasy-friendly 18/221/5 stat line through his first four outings this season.

Starts week limited Smith (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Turron Davenport of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Smith is nursing an ankle sprain sustained during Sunday's win over the Texans, the severity of which knocked him out of action in the third quarter. The Titans reportedly consider Smith's injury minor, but his status for Week 7 will remain in question as long as he's being held out from handling full practice reps. A game-time absence by Smith would provide Anthony Firkser, who broke out with 113 yards and a touchdown versus Houston, to operate as Tennessee's clear top tight end against the Steelers.

Injury deemed minor Smith is nursing a "minor" ankle sprain sustained during Sunday's 42-36 win over the Texans, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Smith was forced out of action in the third quarter Sunday, before which he'd been limited to one 13-yard catch. Though Schefter notes that the starting tight end is expected to be listed as questionable for the Titans' Week 7 game against the Steelers, the team no doubt will wait until Smith has been thoroughly evaluated at practice before officially dealing him an injury tag. Anthony Firkser managed eight catches for 113 yards and a score against the Texans, so his competence could allow Tennessee to feel secure allowing Smith the luxury of time to rest should he need it.

Exits with ankle injury Smith was forced out of Sunday's game versus the Texans with an ankle injury, Paul Kuharsky of 104.5 The Zone Nashville reports.

Impact Smith exited the game in the third quarter, and he did some sprints in front of trainers on the sidelines before taking a seat on the bench. He recorded one 13-yard reception before leaving the game. Anthony Firkser will operate as the top tight end if Smith is unable to return.

Ready for Week 6 Smith (quadriceps) won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game versus the Texans, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.

Impact Smith started the week as a non-participant but practiced without limitations Friday, which gives him a green light for Week 6. The fourth-year tight end has been fantastic this season, as he's posted 18 receptions for 221 yards and five touchdowns through four games. Smith's value could take a slight hit if Corey Davis (illness) returns from the reserve/COVID-19 list, but as one of the top fantasy tight ends this year, he should be utilized accordingly.

Logs limited practice session Smith was listed as a limited participant in Thursday's practice with a quadriceps injury, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports.

Impact After Tennessee listed him as a non-participant on its estimated practice report Wednesday, Smith was able to take his activity up a notch when the Titans got back on the field Thursday. Assuming he's at least able to maintain his activity level in the team's final practice of the week Friday, Smith should be in good shape to play Sunday versus the Texans. With Corey Davis (illness) still on the Titans' reserve/COVID-19 list, Smith could be in store for another elevated target count Week 6. In the team's blowout win over the Bills on Tuesday, Smith hauled in five of seven targets for 40 yards and two scores.

Reels in two TDs on Tuesday night Smith caught five of his seven targets for 40 receiving yards and two touchdowns during Tuesday's 42-16 win against Buffalo.

Impact Smith and the recently returned from injury A.J. Brown were the clear top options for quarterback Ryan Tannehill, attracting five of the team's six red-zone targets on the night. Smith has been one of the year's fantasy revelations at tight end thus far, as his five TD receptions in four games are more than he managed in his preceding 20 games combined. The Florida International standout faces a Houston defense in Week 6 that is conceding a 72.7 percent completion rate to opposing tight ends on the season.
