Donovan Smith
31-Year-Old
Free Agent
Ready for wild card
Smith (neck) has no injury designation ahead of Saturday's game against the Dolphins.
ANALYSIS
Smith missed Kansas City's final five games of the regular season with a neck injury, but after a full practice session Friday, it seems as if he's been able to move past the issue. Expect the 30-year-old to assume his usual duties as the Chiefs' starting left tackle in Saturday's wild-card affair.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set to start at left tackle
Smith will start offseason team activities as Kansas City's left tackle, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
This news isn't particularly surprising given that Smith has played exclusively at left tackle throughout his career. However, it will force Jawaan Taylor -- who signed with Kansas City for four years and $80 million this offseason-- to the right side, after he was presumed to be the starter at left tackle for the last couple of months. Regardless of where they line up, the duo figures to provide strong protection for Patrick Mahomes in 2023.
