Texans' Chris Smith: Signed to active roster
The Texans signed Smith to their active roster Thursday, Aaron Wilson of Sportstalk 790 Houston reports.
Smith was elevated from the Texans' practice squad for their Week 14 matchup against Seattle, but he'll now land a contract to join the 53-man roster. Jonathan Greenard (illness), Derek Rivers (illness) and Jacob Martin (illness) were all placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list recently, so Smith could draw the start in Sunday's Week 16 matchup against the Chargers.

Chris Smith: Unable to secure roster spot
The Raiders released Smith on Saturday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Smith was a late addition to training camp, signing Aug. 25 with a little over a week left. The 28-year-old defensive end failed to make enough of an impact to retain a reserve role, as Las Vegas opted to keep Arden Key and Carl Nassib as the primary backups to Clelin Ferrell and Maxx Crosby.

Smith signed a one-year contract with the Panthers on Wednesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Smith played a reserve role in Cleveland for the last two years, totaling 22 tackles and three pass breakups over 25 games. There's steep competition in front of him in Carolina, so he's far from a lock to make Carolina's roster once the preseason concludes.

Browns' Chris Smith: Won't suit up against Pittsburgh
Smith is a healthy scratch Week 13 against Pittsburgh.
Smith briefly saw an uptick in playing time with Olivier Vernon injured, but Vernon is back this week for the divisional matchup, and Smith will sit as a result.

Browns' Chris Smith: Set for bigger role
Smith will start in place of Olivier Vernon (knee) in the team's Week 12 contest against the Dolphins, Mary Kay Cabot of The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports.
Smith has not played more than 40 percent of the team's defensive snaps in any game this season, even with Vernon absent. However, with Myles Garrett (suspension) also unavailable, Smith should be in line for a bigger role in Week 12.
