Jets' Stone Smartt: Scores 24-yard TD in Saturday's win
Stone Smartt caught his only target for a 24-yard touchdown in Saturday's 30-10 preseason win over the Packers.Smartt's touchdown catch came in the third quarter, well after all of the New York Jets' starters had departed. He's behind 2025 second-round pick Mason Taylor (ankle) and Jeremy Ruckert on the depth chart, but Smartt's intriguing pass catching ability could earn him a role on offense come the regular season, especially if Taylor misses time as a result of his high-ankle sprain.

Jets' Stone Smartt: Joining forces with Gang Green
Stone Smartt is signing a one-year contract with the New York Jets, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.Smartt was the Chargers' top pass-catching TE for a few weeks last season while Will Dissly was injured, but they didn't consider him worthy of a restricted-free-agent tender for $3.26 million. While that isn't the best sign for his NFL future, nor for his odds of gaining fantasy relevance, Smartt at least did well to land with a team that has one of the weakest TE rooms in the league. Incumbent starter Tyler Conklin is an unrestricted free agent, leaving 2022 third-round pick Jeremy Ruckert atop the depth chart, backed only by young, undrafted players. The Jets figure to add more talent at the position if they don't re-sign Conklin, and Smartt's chances to earn a regular role in passing situations likely depends on whether the team gets an experienced starter / early draft pick or settles for another bargain-bin signing / late-round selection. Either way, the path to mainstream fantasy relevance is slim.

Chargers' Stone Smartt: Puts up career-high marks
Stone Smartt played in 15 regular-season games in 2024, making 16 catches (on 19 targets) for 208 yards.Smartt's reception and yardage totals were career highs, despite playing 122 offensive snaps less in 2024 than he had in 2023. The Old Dominion product is set to be a restricted free agent in March and is a candidate to return to the squad in 2025, depending on how the Los Angeles Chargers rework their tight-end corps with only Will Dissly under contract for next season.

Chargers' Stone Smartt: Two receptions in big win
Stone Smartt caught both of his targets for 23 yards in the 40-7 win over the Patriots on Saturday.Will Dissly (35 snaps) and Tucker Fisk (32 snaps) both played more than Smartt, who had benefitted in recent weeks due to the absence of Dissly and Hayden Hurst (illness). With Dissly back, Smartt should fade back into the No. 2 tight end committee that sees him typically used as an additional blocker.

Chargers' Stone Smartt: Three receptions in win
Stone Smartt caught all three of his targets for 37 yards in the 34-27 win over the Broncos on Thursday.Hayden Hurst returned off injured reserve after missing the past five weeks due to a hip injury, but the veteran played only eight snaps, hardly carving into Smartt's playing time. In addition, Will Dissly appears closer to returning after missing the past two games due to a shoulder injury, which would also relegate Smartt to at minimum the No. 2 spot in the tight end rotation come Week 16. Given the compiling playing time factors, Smartt's run as a productive fantasy option could be coming to a close.
