The Jets cut Smith (undisclosed) from the practice squad injured list Wednesday with an injury settlement, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Smith was placed on the Jets' practice squad injured list Friday with an unspecified injury. The injury settlement allows the 2022 fourth-round pick to join a team in need of linebacker depth once he's fully healthy. Across his two regular-season appearances with the Eagles in 2023, Smith played 30 snaps on special teams and registered one tackle.

Smith (thigh) was not present on Carolina's injury report Wednesday.
Smith had been dealing with a thigh injury since his rookie season kicked off and hasn't yet logged his debut snap, though it now appears he'll be ready to go Sunday versus New Orleans. While he's not expected to start any time soon, the uber-athletic linebacker out of Penn State should get a chance to contribute in the near future.
