Smith was released from the Panthers' practice squad Tuesday, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
Smith's release opened up room for the Panthers to add quarterback Josh Love to their practice squad. The Ohio State product has only appeared in one game this year (with Jacksonville), playing six offensive snaps and failing to haul in his only target. He will look to join his third team of the 2021 campaign.

Devin Smith: Joins Carolina's practice squad
Rotowire
The Panthers signed Smith to their practice squad Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Smith began the 2021 campaign on the Jaguars' practice squad. He was promoted to the active roster ahead of Week 1 -- his first NFL appearance since 2019 -- and played just seven offensive snaps. He spent the new few weeks on Jacksonville's practice squad before getting cut Oct. 12. The 2015 second-round pick now joins a Carolina team that has only four healthy wideouts on their active roster. If Terrace Marshall (concussion) is sidelined again for Week 8, then Smith may join the 53-man roster for Sunday's matchup against the Falcons.

Jaguars' Devin Smith: Elevated from practice squad
Rotowire
Smith was elevated to the active roster Saturday.
Smith last played in an active game back in 2019 with the Cowboys, but his familiarity with coach Urban Meyer during their time together at Ohio State perhaps afforded him this spot on the team. Expect the 29-year-old to merely act as depth at wide receiver.

The 28-year-old only saw action in four games with the Cowboys in 2019, catching five of nine targets for 113 yards and a touchdown. Smith has seen action in 18 games in his career with the Jets and Cowboys, so he could be an intriguing depth option for another team around the league.

Cowboys' Devin Smith: Early promise fades
Rotowire
Smith finished the 2019 season having caught five of nine targets for 113 yards and a touchdown through four games.
The former Jet hadn't played in an NFL game since 2016, but after a strong showing in training camp and the preseason, Smith began the year on the 53-man roster and showed flashes of his promise as a deep threat by hauling in his second career TD in Week 2. By Week 5, however, he was inactive and didn't see another snap the rest of the season. With both Amari Cooper and Randall Cobb free agents this offseason, there could be openings on the depth chart ahead of him heading into 2020, but Smith would still be a longshot to have significant fantasy value.

Smith (coach's decision) is inactive Sunday against the Packers, Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News reports.
After getting heavy usage during Michael Gallup's (knee) two-game absence, Smith will don street clothes for the first time this season. The decision likely stems from hauling in just two of six targets during that stretch.
