Coach Dennis Allen confirmed after Friday's preseason win against the Chargers that Smith is dealing with a shoulder injury, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Smith paid a visit to the sideline tent in the second quarter, after which it appeared his arm was hanging looser than normal, according to Nick Underhill of NewOrleans.Football. He was unable to return, and Allen said Smith will undergo further evaluation to discover the extent of the health concern.
