Torrey Smith injury update: Ravens WR is active, fantasy owners should remain cautious
The Ravens’ speedy wideout is active but could be reduced to a limited role once again Sunday. We break down the fantasy implications.

Smith has been dealing with a sprained knee, which impacted his play in the Ravens' Week 14 win over the Dolphins. The Ravens used Smith as a decoy, playing him in just 15 of 65 snaps and targeting him zero times. It's likely that Smith returns to this severely limited role especially considering the fact that the Ravens may not need much help overcoming the 2-11 Jaguars.
Fantasy Spin: This is not a situation Smith’s fantasy owners should want anything to do with this week, and he arguably would have been better off on the bench this week. Owners should consider keeping their backup plans in place that were already queued up. Granted, the match up is a tasty one for any Ravens skill player, but Smith should be considered a low-end WR3 at best. There’s just no telling how much he’ll even be needed even if he is closer to 100 percent.
