Is DeVonta Smith hurt or healthy? Will DeVonta Smith play in Week 11? Read the latest fantasy football injury updates.
Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver DeVonta Smith popped up on the injury report this week, leaving fantasy managers concerned about his Week 11 status. Smith may not be a weekly surefire WR1, but he's been a stellar fantasy option in several games, and on the season as a whole.
As a primary pass-catcher in an Eagles offense that just lost Dallas Goedert (shoulder) for at least four games, he's close to a must-start option, so his status has a major fantasy impact.
Is Smith healthy enough to play in Week 11? Let's find out.

Is DeVonta Smith Healthy or Injured?
After some limited practices early in the week, Smith (knee) practiced in full Friday and does not carry an injury designation into Week 11 against the Indianapolis Colts. Fellow wide receiver A.J. Brown (ankle) had the same practice schedule this week, so their limited statuses early on might have just been precautionary measures after the team's Monday Night Football loss to the Washington Commanders.
Breathe easy, because Smith will play in Week 11, and there's no expectation of him being limited in this contest.
DeVonta Smith Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook
The Indianapolis Colts are the toughest matchup for fantasy wide receivers, ranking as the top defense in fantasy points allowed per game to wideouts. That said, Smith's ceiling and floor could be significantly decreased. A player like A.J. Brown is a must-start in every matchup, but as the No. 2 wide receiver, Smith could have a tougher path to fantasy success.
Regardless, it's tough to sit Smith unless you're loaded with wide receiver talent on your fantasy roster. He's a fringe WR2 on the season and with Goedert out of action, this could become a two-man show in the passing game. Smith has proven capable of providing week-winning performances, so he's still very much on the fantasy radar.
After the Eagles' first loss of the season, expect an inspired bounce-back performance from Jalen Hurts and co. Smith has a real risk of having a bust performance, but in most cases, the No. 2 option in one of the league's elite offenses shouldn't see the bench in fantasy lineups.
