Jets' Tyron Smith: Placed on IR due to neck injury
Rotowire
The Jets placed Smith (neck) on injured reserve Saturday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.
Smith suffered a neck injury in Week 10 against the Cardinals, and he has missed the Jets' last two games as a result. He'll be forced to miss the next four games and is eligible to return for Week 17 against the Bills, though Rich Cimini of ESPN.com posits that Smith is likely done for the rest of the 2024 regular season. Smith signed a one-year contract with the Jets in March after spending the first 13 years of his career with the Cowboys, who selected him in the first round of the 2011 NFL Draft.

Cowboys' Tyron Smith: Unlikely to re-sign with Dallas
Rotowire
Smith, a pending unrestricted free agent, is unlikely to return to the Cowboys, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

Concerns of age and injury still linger for the 33-year-old left tackle, but if Smith indeed hits free agency, he shouldn't lack for suitors from teams around the league in need of reliable protection.

Cowboys' Tyron Smith: Dealing with back injury
Rotowire
Smith (back) didn't practice Wednesday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports.
Smith has sat out practices for rest purposes from time to time this season, but Wednesday's DNP was attributed to a back issue. The left tackle played all 57 offensive snaps for Dallas in Sunday's loss to Buffalo, so it's unclear when the injury occurred or how severe it is. Smith has been one of the league's top offensive linemen this season, so it would be a big blow if the back issue prevented him from suiting up Sunday in a tough battle against the Dolphins.
