Smith notched eight tackles (six solo) during Thursday's loss to the Rams.
Smith logged his best tackling game of the season during Minnesota's loss to Los Angeles in Week 8 while playing 100 percent of defensive snaps. The veteran safety's strong floor as a run stopper makes him a viable fantasy option in IDP formats, especially given that he retains an every-down role heading into the Vikings' home matchup against the Colts in Week 9.
