One catch in Week 15 Smith caught just one of his three targets for three yards in Saturday's 27-17 loss to Indianapolis.
Impact Per Mike Reiss of ESPN.com, Smith logged 17 of a possible 68 snaps in the contest, while fellow tight end Hunter Henry was on the field for 55 snaps, en route to catching six of his eight targets for 77 yards and two TDs. Back-to-back one-catch efforts doesn't inspire much confidence in Smith as a Week 16 fantasy option, but if the Patriots' wideout depth is compromised this weekend, which is possible, the team may need to focus more attention on its tight end duo versus Buffalo on Sunday.

For now, the team's only available roster options free of any only Week 16 availability concerns are Jakobi Meyers, and Gunner Olszewski, with Tre Nixon and Kristian Wilkerson on the practice squad. Prior to his exit from Saturday's contest, Harry caught two of his five targets for 52 yards.
