Bills' Dawuane Smoot: Won't play Thursday
Smoot (toe) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Dolphins, Jay Skurski of The Buffalo News reports.
Smoot was considered unlikely to play as of Monday, so this announcement doesn't come as much of a surprise. The Illinois product also missed Week 1's win over the Cardinals with the injury. He'll now focus on a Week 3 return against the Jaguars.

Bills' Dawuane Smoot: Likely missing Week 2
Head coach Sean McDermott said Monday that Smoot (toe) is trending towards not playing in Thursday's game against the Dolphins, Maddy Glab of the Bills' official site reports.
Smoot was unable to suit up for the Bills' Week 1 win over the Cardinals, and it now appears his toe issue could hold him out for the second consecutive game Thursday. If Smoot is unable to go in Week 2, expect Von Miller and Casey Toohill to see increased work as rotational pass rushers.

Bills' Dawuane Smoot: Won't play Week 1
Smoot (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Cardinals.
Smoot practiced in full Wednesday and Thursday, but he popped up on Friday's injury report with a toe injury, which appears severe enough for him to be sidelined for Week 1. Casey Toohill and Von Miller will be the primary backup defensive ends Sunday behind starters Greg Rousseau and A.J. Epenesa.

Smoot (toe) didn't practice Friday and is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals.

Bills' Dawuane Smoot: Headed to Buffalo
Smoot signed a one-year deal with the Bills on Friday, Alec White & Maddy Glab of the team's official site reports.
Smoot, who spent the past seven seasons with the Jaguars, will provide the Bills with added defensive-line depth ahead of the 2024 campaign. The 2017 third-rounder is coming off a 2023 regular season in which he recorded just 10 tackles, including a sack, in 12 contests, but with Buffalo, Smoot should have a chance to contribute as a rotational pass rusher.

Jaguars' Dawuane Smoot: Activated from PUP list
Jacksonville activated Smoot (Achilles) from the reserve/PUP list Saturday, Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union reports.
Smoot partially tore his Achilles last December and began the 2023 campaign on the PUP list. He was able to return to practice in a limited fashion last week before being upgraded to a full participant this week. Smoot's activation means he is lined up to make his season debut Sunday against the Colts, and he should immediately help the Jaguars' pass rush.

Jaguars' Dawuane Smoot: Will return to practice
Smoot (Achilles) was designated to return from the reserve/PUP list Wednesday.
Smoot will now have 21 days to practice with the team before being added to the active roster. The 28-year-old suffered a partially torn Achilles last December and hasn't been able to practice with the team since, so he'll likely need most, if not all, of that three-week window to be ready to join the 53-man roster.

Jaguars' Dawuane Smoot: Lands on PUP list
Smoot (Achilles) was placed on the active/PUP list Wednesday.
Smoot is still recovering from a partially torn Achilles tendon suffered last December. However, with Jacksonville willing to sign him to a one-year $6.25 million deal Friday, and his placement on the active, not reserve, PUP list, he's likely to be ready sooner than later. He'll be able to compete once he can pass his physical.

Jaguars' Dawuane Smoot: Signs new deal with Jacksonville
Smoot (Achilles) and the Jaguars agreed on a one-year, $6.25 million contract Friday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
With Smoot gearing up to visit the Ravens in the near future, Jacksonville stepped up and signed the defensive end to a new deal to keep him in town. The 28-year-old is still recovering from the torn right Achilles tendon he suffered in December, but when he's healthy, Smoot will be returning to the defensive unit in which he accumulated 21 tackles, including five sacks, in 2022.
