2024 Fantasy Outlook
The Buccaneers invested a third-round pick this April in Smith, who posted 140 tackles, including 21.5 for loss and five sacks, eight interceptions (including a pick-six) and a pair of forced fumbles over a 51-game college career at West Virginia and Georgia. The promising rookie will have the luxury of learning from the star safety tandem of Jordan Whitehead and Antoine Winfield, and while the veteran duo will block his path to meaningful snaps, Smith should begin laying a foundation for future IDP success.

Officially doubtful for Sunday
Smith (knee) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Giants, Greg Auman of Fox Sports reports.
ANALYSIS
Scott Smith of the Buccaneers' official site reported earlier Friday that head coach Todd Bowles ruled out Smith for Sunday's matchup in New York. However, the Buccaneers' official injury report Friday lists the rookie from Georgia as doubtful. If Smith is sidelined as expected in Week 12, Tavierre Thomas and Troy Hill (ankle) will likely serve as Tampa Bay's top slot cornerbacks.
