Smith has progressed through the allergy issues he had been dealing with and participated in a mock game on Monday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.

Smith did not travel with the team to Las Vegas after suffering an allergic reaction Friday at training camp, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Smith has not officially been ruled out for Saturday's preseason matchup with the Raiders, but given it is an exhibition contest, expect Dallas to err on the side of caution. The 2023 first-round pick is projected to start at defensive tackle next to Osa Odighizuwa this season.

Smith appeared to be back to his usual playing weight on the first day of training camp practices Thursday, and he lined up as the 1-technique on the first-team defense, Nick Harris of DallasCowboys.com reports. The 26th overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Smith had a rough rookie season due in part to a shoulder issue that required surgery in the offseason. He showed up at OTAs below his playing weight as he continued his recovery from the surgery, but the Michigan product looks to be 100 percent heading into camp. Dallas is looking for Smith to help anchor the middle of the defensive line in 2024 alongside Osa Odighizuwa.

Smith is recovering from offseason shoulder surgery and is expected to be ready for training camp, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.

The 2023 first-round pick only handled a depth role as a rookie, suiting up for all 17 games but playing just 287 defensive snaps.
