Smith caught one of three targets for 12 yards in Sunday's 26-24 loss to the Browns.
Smith played over 75 percent of Carolina's offensive snaps, while neither Terrace Marshall nor Rashard Higgins saw the field despite being active. While DJ Moore and Robbie Anderson are undoubtedly the Panthers' top two wideouts, the team's No. 3 could wind up providing some value as well if one of Smith, Marshall or Higgins can decisively claim the job.
