  • Signing four-year extension

    Smith and the Packers have reached agreement on a four-year contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Prior to the extension, Smith was scheduled for a $19.7 million cap hit in 2022, the final season of a four-year contract he signed in March 2019. With Smith coming back and the Packers facing a difficult cap situation, it didn't come as much of a surprise that the team moved on from fellow pass rusher Za'Darius Smith, who also was signed in March 2019. While Za'Darius was the more productive of the two in 2019 and 2020, he managed just one appearance in 2021 due to a back injury, which helped…read more

  • Heading into final year of contract

    Smith racked up 38 tackles (25 solo), nine sacks, two pass breakups, two forced fumbles and one fumble recovery across 16 games in 2021.

    Analysis: Smith has now recorded seven consecutive 16-game seasons, though he ended his ironman streak by sitting out Green Bay's Week 7 win over Washington. The 29-year-old is still under contract for 2022, but given that Smith is scheduled for nearly a $20 million cap hit, the Packers could approach him about restructuring his deal this offseason in order to remain on the roster.

  • Snags another sack

    Smith registered four tackles (three solo), a sack and a pass deflection in Sunday's 37-10 victory over the Vikings.

    Analysis: Smith totaled just two sacks over his first eight appearances of the season, but he has picked up the pace in a big way since, taking down the quarterback seven times over his last seven games. Smith's nine sacks are the second most he has recorded in his seven NFL seasons and are more than double the 4.0 sacks he tallied in 2020.

  • Tallies two more sacks

    Smith recorded four tackles (three solo), tallied two sacks and forced a fumble in Sunday's 45-30 victory over the Bears.

    Analysis: Smith registered both his first multi-sack effort and first forced fumble of the season in the Packers' Week 11 loss to the Vikings, and he repeated that performance just two games later. Smith is now up to 7.0 sacks on the season, with five of those coming over the last four games he appeared in.

  • Stacks up two sacks

    Smith made six tackles (four solo), recorded two sacks and forced a fumble in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Vikings.

    Analysis: The Packers needed Smith to step up with fellow pass rusher Rashan Gary (elbow) sideline and he delivered, recording multiple sacks in a game for the first time this season. Smith has just 21 tackles (13 solo) in his 10 appearances this season, but he does have 5.0 sacks, which are one more than he recorded in 16 games during the previous campaign.

  • Back in action Thursday

    Smith (oblique) is active for Thursday's game at Arizona.

    Analysis: Smith sat out Sunday's win against Washington -- which was the first missed game of his seven-year career -- but he's ready to play Thursday in the desert. The 29-year-old has 13 tackles (eight solo) and two sacks through six games this season.

  • Questionable for TNF

    Smith (oblique) has been listed as questionable to play versus the Cardinals on Thursday Night Football.

    Analysis: The linebacker was inactive last week versus Washington, snapping a 102-game streak of being active prior. He logged a limited practice Wednesday, likely setting him up to be a game-time decision Thursday. If he can't play, the recently signed Whitney Mercilus could play a big role at outside linebacker versus Arizona.

  • Won' t play Sunday

    Smith (oblique) is inactive for Sunday's game against Washington.

    Analysis: Smith was considered a game-time decision and won't be available against his former team, which will be the first missed game of his seven-year NFL career (a span of 102 games). Whitney Mercilus -- who signed with the Packers on Thursday -- may see significant snaps in his team debut, while Jonathan Garvin and Ladarius Hamilton could also have increased roles.

  • Consecutive games streak in doubt

    Smith (oblique) is questionable for Sunday's game against Washington, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Smith missed practice Wednesday and Thursday but was able to return for Friday's practice after sustaining the oblique injury in the second half of last week's win over the Bears. He has appeared in all 102 regular-season games since entering the NFL, which is the longest active streak of appearances among outside linebackers. Smith's a game-time decision, so that streak's in danger of coming to an end.

  • Might not return Sunday

    Smith (oblique) is questionable to return Sunday against the Bears.

    Analysis: Smith left the game in the second half, and it remains to be seen if he'll be able to get back into this divisional matchup. If he can't go, the Packers would suffer a big blow to their secondary. Jonathan Garvin and Ladarius Hamilton will replace Smith if he doesn't reenter the contest.

  • Records full practice

    Smith (shoulder) was listed as a full participant in the Packers' practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Smith injured his shoulder in Week 4 against the Steelers, and the severity of the injury was uncertain after the game. It seems the injury isn't too serious and Smith should be able to play in Week 5 against the Bengals. If Smith is unable to suit up Sunday, expect Chauncey Rivers and Jonathan Garvin to see increased snaps.

  • Questionable to return Sunday

    Smith (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Steelers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Smith injured his shoulder making a tackle on the first drive of the game. The Packers are already without Za'Darius Smith (back), so it would be a big blow to their defense if Smith is unable to return. Chauncey Rivers and Jonathan Garvin will likely both see increased snaps in Smith's absence.

  • First sack this season

    Smith tallied four tackles (three solo) and a sack in Sunday's 30-28 victory over the 49ers.

    Analysis: Smith was shut out in the Week 2 box score despite playing 82 percent of the defensive snaps, but he bounced back Sunday, recording his first sack of the season and adding a tackle for loss. He and teammate Rashan Gary will be counted on to lead the Packers' pass rush in the absence of fellow edge defender Za'Darius Smith.

  • Removed from injury report

    Smith (head) has been removed from the Packers' injury report ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Saints, Wes Hodkiewicz of the team's official website repots.

    Analysis: Smith missed Thursday's practice due to a minor head injury. It looks like the team was just erring on the side of caution with his absence. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his projected role as starting edge rusher opposite Za'Darius Smith (back) with Rashan Gary rotating in.

  • Misses practice with minor injury

    Smith missed practice Thursday due to a minor head laceration, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Smith's head injury isn't concussion-related, and the injury is viewed as minor. While this development isn't expected to affect Smith's availability for Sunday's season opener against the Saints, it would still be nice to see him return to practice Friday, for peace of mind if nothing else.

  • Restructures deal

    Smith and the Packers have restructured his contract in order to lower the team's salary cap number, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Smith has agreed to a pay cut that will reduce his base salary to $1 million, while he'll also receive a $6.5 million signing bonus to go along with the opportunity to earn $4.4 million back in incentives. He only tallied four sacks in 2020 in what was ultimately seen as a disapointing season. As a result, he was seen as a potential release candidate for the Packers. Instead, he worked with the team and will presumably go into 2021 competing for playing time on the edge with Rashan Gary…read more

  • Returns fumble for TD

    Smith had three tackles (two solo), a sack and he returned a fumble for a touchdown during Sunday's 41-25 win over the Bears.

    Analysis: This season has been a struggle for the 28-year-old, so it was a welcome sight to see him pick up a sack and a scoop-and-score during Sunday's divisional matchup. Smith has only 2.5 sacks through 11 games this season, though two of those sacks have come within the past three games.

  • Ready to rock

    Smith (shoulder) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Texans.

    Analysis: Smith suffered the injury during last week's loss to the Buccaneers, but will suit up after practicing on a limited basis throughout the week. With the veteran ready to play, he's expected to handle his usual starting role at linebacker.

  • Listed as questionable

    Smith (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Texans.

    Analysis: This injury may have popped up in Week 6 against the Buccaneers as Smith played a season-low 66 percent of the team's defensive snaps. He was limited in practice all week, though, so there is optimism that he'll suit up in Sunday's contest. Rashan Gary likely would start at outside linebacker if Smith were to be ruled out.

  • Gets to QB in win

    Smith recorded three tackles and 0.5 sacks in Sunday's 42-21 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Smith got to the QB for the first time this season, although he notched just a half sack. While he's still logging starting reps -- he played 93 percent of snaps -- Za'Darius Smith and Rashan Gary have been more effective pass rushers, combining for 3.5 sacks thus far. Preston is due for a positive bump at some point after racking up 12 sacks in 2019, but Week 3 against the Saints will be tough, as Drew Brees has been sacked just once this season.

    Published: Tue, Sep 22 at 1:17pm by Rotowire.com

  • Piles up 12 sacks in 2019

    Smith, who recorded two sacks over two playoff games, recorded 56 tackles, 12 sacks and four pass breakups over 16 regular-season contests in 2019.

    Analysis: The Packers got immediate return after making a splash in free agency to sign Za'Darius and Preston Smith. The two tormented opponents this year, ranking sixth and eighth in the league, respectively, in sacks. Both are under contract for another three seasons, so they're just getting started in the NFC North.

  • Sheds injury designation

    Smith (ankle) does not carry an injury designation for Sunday's NFC Championship Game in San Francisco, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Smith practiced in a limited capacity all week, but it was enough to avoid a designation following him into the weekend, when he'll look to make an impact via his pass-rushing prowess.

  • Ankle injury lingers

    Smith was limited in Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury.

    Analysis: Smith's practice reps were also capped leading into the divisional-round win over Seattle, but the injury didn't stop him from generating two sacks and two solo tackles. The dangerous pass rusher will have two more chances to upgrade his activity prior to Sunday's NFC Championship Game against the 49ers.

  • Makes big play in victory

    Smith had two sacks in Sunday's divisional-round win over the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Smith was slowed by an ankle injury last week at practice, but he was not affected Sunday, getting to Russell Wilson twice, including on Seattle's final offensive play of the game.

  • Set for divisional round

    Smith (ankle) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's divisional-round contest versus the Seahawks, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.

    Analysis: The Packers capped Smith's practice reps this week due to an ankle issue, but it won't stop him from suiting up Sunday. As the owner of 12 regular-season sacks , he'll be looking to bring down Russell Wilson versus a front that gave up the ninth-most sacks (three per game) in 2019.

  • Battling ankle injury

    Smith (ankle) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Smith isn't full speed for the team's first official postseason practice, and it'll be worth keeping an eye on his status leading up to Sunday's divisional-round matchup versus the Seahawks. The 27-year-old outside linebacker has racked up 12 sacks this season, and his pass-rushing prowess will be necessary to contain the elusive Russell Wilson. He'll have two more practices to get back to full speed.

  • Half a sack on Monday night

    Smith had three tackles and half of a sack during Monday's victory over the Vikings.

    Analysis: While it was the other Smith on the Packers who stole the show Monday, Smith seemingly played well all game and was able to help his counterpart, Za'Darius Smith, take down Kirk Cousins on one occasion. The duo will possibly have an even easier matchup in Sunday's season finale against a reeling Lions team that will again be trotting out backup-caliber quarterback David Blough.

  • No sacks in win

    Smith made five tackles -- one for a loss -- in Sunday's 21-13 win over the Bears.

    Analysis: Smith notched 1.5 sacks in the season opener against the Bears, but they contained him better in this outing. The fifth-year linebacker will look to keep building on his career-best 11.5 sacks in Week 16's clash against the Vikings.

  • Logs another sack in win

    Smith was credited with two solo tackles and a sack in Sunday's win over the Redskins.

    Analysis: With 11.5 sacks on the season, Smith now sits sixth on the NFL sack leaders list. He's registered at least half a sack in eight of his 13 games this season.

  • Contributes to shared sack Sunday

    Smith recorded three tackles (one solo) and a half-sack in Sunday's 37-8 loss to the 49ers.

    Analysis: Smith has racked up 3.5 sacks over the Packers' last three contests, already amassing a career-high 10.5 sacks in his first season with Green Bay. A favorable matchup awaits in Week 13 against a Giants offensive line that has struggled against the pass rush, ceding 35 sacks to opposing defenses through Week 12.

  • Sack machine Sunday

    Smith made six tackles (five solo) and two sacks in Sunday's 24-18 win over the Panthers.

    Analysis: Smith's fantastic season rolled on Sunday, as he's now up to 41 tackles, 10 sacks and an interception through 10 games this year. He and Za'Darius Smith have now accounted for 18.5 sacks, combining for one of the fiercest pass rushes in the league. They'll get a tougher matchup in Week 12, however, as the Packers head to the West Coast to take on the 49ers following their bye week.

  • Matches career high

    Smith posted seven tackles (five solo) and a sack in Sunday's 26-11 loss to the Chargers.

    Analysis: This was Smith's best tackling performance of the year, and he's now matched a career high of eight sacks through just nine games. Preston and Za'Darius Smith have combined to serve one of the most dynamic pass-rushing duos in the league, accounting for 16.5 of the team's 22 sacks and both slotting in the top eight leaguewide.
