Lee Smith caught 3-of-3 targets for seven yards and a touchdown in the Falcons' Week 3 win over the Giants.

Smith's TD reception was a critical score in the Falcons' Week 3 win. For fantasy purposes it was notable primarily because it was a tight end touchdown that did not go to Kyle Pitts. Smith can continue to be left on the waiver wire.

Falcons traded for TE Lee Smith in exchange for a 2022 late-round pick.

4 years ago

Smith is labeled as a tight end, but he's essentially a third offensive tackle when he takes the field. The 34-year-old will be Arthur Smith's run-blocking tight end while Hayden Hurst operates as the pass-catcher. Smith getting traded is a surprise, but the move does free up $2.25 million for Buffalo.
