2025 Fantasy Outlook
Smith missed the last five games of 2024 for personal reasons and entered the offseason staring down a nebulous roster situation, but now having reworked his contract, the starting right tackle is set to remain in Indy for 2025, before becoming a free agent in 2026. The recent time Smith has missed can't be ignored - injuries also forced him to sit out seven games in 2023 - but having now emerged for the better from a serious confrontation with OCD, the 29-year-old is well positioned to return to form.

Ruled out for Sunday
Smith (concussion) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
Smith sustained a concussion in the Colts' Week 14 loss to the Jaguars and was unable to clear the league's five-step protocol in time for Sunday's contest. Jalen Travis will likely start at right tackle in Smith's place against a fearsome Seahawks defensive front.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Injuries could affect future
The Colts could choose to cut Smith this offseason, Matt Okada of NFL.com suggests.
ANALYSIS
Smith is one of the top offensive tackles in the league when healthy, and his performance when on the field hasn't slipped as he enters his age-29 season. However, he's missed a combined 12 games across the last two campaigns. Smith is set to count $19.8 million against the Colts' salary cap, the 10th-highest hit at his position. If Indianapolis does opt to move on, it would save the team $16.8 million.
