Za'Darius Smith In Danger Of Missing Week 1?
3 years agoGreen Bay Packers linebacker Za'Darius Smith (back) was listed as a limited participant in practice on Wednesday, and his status could be in question for the regular season opener this Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. Smith spent most of training camp on the Non-Football Injury list with a back problem, so it wouldn't be a huge surprise if the Packers held him out this weekend. The good news is that the 29-year-old is practicing, but fantasy managers in IDP leagues should steer clear of him if he does take the field against New Orleans. Those in IDP setups should take a wait-and-see approach with Smith until he proves he's fully healthy for the 2021 season. Through two seasons in Green Bay, he has 107 tackles, 26 sacks, five forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries in 32 games.
