  • Another solid receiving day

    Smith hauled in four of his five targets for 55 receiving yards during Sunday's 40-23 loss to the Falcons.

    Analysis: The 22-year-old was obsolete in the passing game Weeks 1 through 4, managing only two total receptions for 14 yards despite playing 143 offensive snaps during that span. Smith has become much more involved as a receiver of late, posting a season-high 59 offensive snaps last week while recording four receptions for 64 yards against the Seahawks. The Alabama product now has eight receptions and 119 receiving yards in his past two outings as Minnesota moves into its Week 7 bye before battling…read more

  • Finally gets involved as receiver

    Smith nabbed four of five targets for 64 yards Sunday in the Vikings' 27-26 loss to the Seahawks.

    Analysis: Smith accounted for two of the Vikings' three biggest plays on the night, reeling in receptions of 25 and 23 yards. Despite turning in his biggest game of the season, Smith was still out-snapped by position mate Kyle Rudolph, 64-59, though Smith ran a route on 72.7 percent of the Vikings' pass plays, according to Pro Football Focus. If the Vikings continue to reserve Rudolph for more blocking duties in future games, Smith could have a chance at building on his Week 5 breakout and emerging as…read more

  • No receptions Sunday

    Smith did not have a reception and was only targeted once in Sunday's win at Houston.

    Analysis: Smith has been a non-factor in the passing game with just two receptions for 14 yards in four games this season. The tight ends are not an active part of the passing game in Minnesota's offense, as Kyle Rudolph has just six receptions, despite game scripts that have seen the Vikings needing to pass while trailing or in high-scoring games.

  • No targets Sunday

    Smith did not have a target in Sunday's 31-30 loss to Tennessee.

    Analysis: Smith played on 36 of the offense's 65 snaps but only went out for a route on 17 snaps. Kyle Rudolph played 48 snaps and had two receptions and three targets (including a three-yard touchdown). Smith also had a key blocking penalty, his third penalty this season. It was thought Smith could have a breakout season in his second year, but he's been a non-factor in the passing offense so far -- just two receptions and five targets in three games -- and there are no signs that will change.

  • Just one reception

    Smith had one reception for three yards on four targets in Sunday's loss at Indianapolis.

    Analysis: Smith (34 snaps) for a second consecutive week played about an email amount of plays as Kyle Rudolph (39 snaps) and saw an increase in targets from one last week. However, Kirk Cousins (just a 15.9 NFL passer rating) and the Vikings passing game couldn't get anything going, so it's hard to read too much into Smith's performance. Smith still could emerge as the second or third option in the passing attack, but the offense and team has many issues to solve after two lopsided losses.

  • Just one reception

    Smith had one reception for 11 yards on his only target in Sunday's 43-34 loss to Green Bay.

    Analysis: With the trade of Stefon Diggs to Buffalo, there was some thought that Smith could emerge as the second or third option in the Minnesota passing game. After one game, that doesn't appear to be the case, but Smith did at least play 31 of 54 snaps on offense, played one fewer snap than Kyle Rudolph and went out for a pass on 16 of 19 passing plays, according to Pro Football Focus.

  • Hoping for more work

    The Vikings expect Smith to handle a bigger role in his second professional season, Chad Graff of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Smith was one of the youngest players in the NFL last season, and he had the disadvantage of playing a position with a notoriously steep learning curve for rookies. No matter, he played 60 percent of Minnesota's offensive snaps during the regular season and 58 percent in two playoff games, catching 39 passes along the way. Smith never emerged as a high-volume receiver, but he demonstrated progress throughout the year, and the Vikings expect him to take another step forward this season. In…read more

  • Finishes with 311 yards

    Smith caught 36 passes for 311 yards and two touchdowns in 16 games this season.

    Analysis: The rookie second-round pick ended up played a sizable role for the Vikings during his debut campaign with 620 offensive snaps, and he also put up similar numbers to top tight end Kyle Rudolph (39 catches for 367 yards and six touchdowns). Rudolph figures to enter training camp atop the depth chart, but Smith could carve out a larger role in the passing game in 2020.

  • Gains 11 yards

    Smith caught one of two targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 21-19 loss to Chicago.

    Analysis: Sunday's performance snapped a three-game streak in which Smith caught multiple passes. Having Sean Mannion under center while Kirk Cousins rested Sunday makes the performance hard to weigh, but the rookie tight end has been on a bit of a downswing with 20 or fewer yards in five of his last six games, though he has scored twice in that span. The Vikings travel to New Orleans for a wild-card matchup Sunday.

  • Kept to four yards

    Smith caught two of three targets for four yards during Monday's 23-10 loss to Green Bay.

    Analysis: Smith has now been held to single-digit receiving yardage in three of his last four games. The rookie tight end has garnered more snaps than your typical No. 2 TE, with at least 30 offensive snaps in every game since Week 5, and has been targeted at least three times in nine consecutive games. That hasn't translated much into production, however, as Smith has mostly served as an underneath option this season. The regular season ends Sunday against a Bears squad that surrendered a single…read more

  • Catches second touchdown

    Smith had two receptions for eight yards, including a one-yard touchdown, on three targets in Sunday's win at the Chargers.

    Analysis: Minnesota didn't need to do much in the passing game in the second half with a large lead, which may have limited Smith's targets, but he did add his second touchdown catch of the season. He's had three or more targets in eight consecutive games despite the low yardage total Sunday and still was a factor in the passing game with Adam Thielen returning from a hamstring injury. Smith could see increased targets next week if Minnesota's passing game is needed more against Green Bay.

  • Three receptions Sunday

    Smith had three receptions for 21 yards on four targets in Sunday's win over Detroit.

    Analysis: He started the game in a two-TE set with Kyle Rudolph and ended up playing more snaps (51) than Rudolph (46). Smith has become a larger part of the offense as the season progressed, especially with Adam Thielen sidelined with a hamstring injury, but the rookie has just four receptions the past two games. Smith didn't get targeted much in Sunday's game once the Vikings had a large lead and turned to the running game.

  • Brings in one catch in loss

    Smith caught one of three targets for a six-yard gain during Monday's 37-30 loss to Seattle.

    Analysis: The tight end caught a second-quarter pass in the flat and tried turning up field for a first down, but was met with a big hit by Quandre Diggs to bring him down short of the sticks. The outing snapped a five-game streak in which Smith had caught at least three passes per game, although he totaled a fairly modest 20 catches on 24 targets for 168 yards and a TD over that stretch. He should get back on track Sunday against the Lions, the team he started that streak against by hauling in five of…read more

  • Gets first NFL touchdown

    Smith had three receptions for 20 yards on three targets, including a 10-yard touchdown, in Sunday's win over Denver.

    Analysis: Smith's role in the offense continues to grow as he recorded his first NFL touchdown. He played on a season-high 81 percent of the offense's snaps and ran routes on 37 of 51 plays. He has 20 receptions and 24 targets over his last five games. His targets may decline slightly when Adam Thielen returns from a hamstring injury, but Smith clearly is becoming a regular part of the game plan.

  • Has five receptions Sunday

    Smith had five receptions for 34 yards on six targets in Sunday's win at Dallas.

    Analysis: Smith was tied for second on the team in targets even on a day when Kyle Rudolph had four receptions and two touchdowns. Smith is getting more looks with Adam Thielen out with a hamstring injury, and his role in the offense should continue to grow because he's drawing praise from the coaching staff. He has 17 receptions and 21 targets in his last four games.

  • Four receptions Sunday

    Smith had four receptions for 33 yards on six targets in Sunday's 26-23 loss at Kansas City.

    Analysis: Smith's role in the offense continues to grow as he's had 12 receptions and 15 targets in his last three games, compared to a total of seven catches and eight targets in his first six games. That trend could accelerate if Adam Thielen remains sidelined with a hamstring injury.
