Footballguys on DeVonta Smith
From the article
Smith has now been ruled out for Week 7, leading me to believe he has suffered yet another setback. Historically, wide receivers with hamstring strains miss an average of two weeks, but that timeline doubles to four weeks for players who suffer a re-aggravation.
STACKED’s take
Smith ruled out with recurring hamstring; re-aggravation could extend absence to four weeks.
Smith continues to battle a hamstring injury dating back to the preseason, previously sidelining him for Weeks 4 and 5. Although he returned in Week 6, lack of practice participation heading into Monday night raised concerns. Smith has been ruled out for Week 7, indicating another setback. Historically, wide receivers with hamstring strains miss an average of two weeks, but that timeline doubles to four weeks for re-aggravations. Smith's initial two-week absence may have been too aggressive a return. Given the recurring nature, the source would not rule out a stint on injured reserve, with legitimate concern that hamstring issues could linger well beyond Week 7.
