According to Sal Capaccio, the Bills will be placing veteran DE Dawuane Smoot on injured reserve as he will require surgery on his wrist.
Smoot, 29, was selected with the No. 68 overall pick in the third round by the Jaguars out of Illinois in 2017. He finished the final year of a four-year rookie contract worth $3,364,160, which includes a signing bonus of $964,160.
Smoot ended up re-signing with the Jaguars on a two-year, $14 million deal and made a base salary of $3.85 million in 2022. He returned to Jacksonville on another one-year deal for the 2023 season.
He was testing the market as an unrestricted free agent this offseason when he caught on with the Bills.
In 2024, Smoot appeared in five games and recorded 11 tackles and one-and-a-half sacks.
We will have more news on Smoot as it becomes available.
