The injury occurred on the return, when Smith attempted to chase down the defender and was inadvertently knocked down by teammate Dylan Parham, whose collision swept Smith’s legs out from under him.
Smith stayed on the turf in visible pain as team trainers attended to him before he was helped to the sideline. He eventually made his way to the locker room for further evaluation, limping and appearing uncomfortable while walking off.
The Raiders entered the matchup at 2–13, and Smith’s latest setback only adds to the frustration of a season already defined by struggles, turnovers, and repeated punishment in the pocket.

To make matters worse, a video of Smith struggling to walk in the locker room emerged on social media.
