Houston signed Smith to its practice squad Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Smith played in 12 games with Cincinnati in 2023, but he wasn't able to stick on a 53-man roster ahead of the 2024 season. Now he'll likely get a chance to make an impression with the Texans, especially with Dalton Schultz dealing with an ankle injury and both Brevin Jordan (knee) and Dalton Keene (knee) on injured reserve.
