What happened: DeVonta Smith is trending toward missing Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams, according to reporting from Mike Garafolo and Tim McManus. The Philadelphia Eagles wideout has been sidelined this week by a hamstring injury.

Why it matters: Smith's absence would leave Jalen Hurts without one of his primary targets heading into Week 4 against Los Angeles. <a href='https://wire.report/article/jalen-hurts-finds-devonta-smith-for-a-touchdown-2026-09-20'>Hurts and Smith connected for a touchdown on Sept. 20</a>, underscoring how central that pairing is to Philadelphia's passing game.

What to watch: Philadelphia's final injury report will further clarify Smith's status before kickoff. If he is ruled out, Hurts' target distribution becomes a central storyline Sunday.
