Fantasy Impact:

Smith played in Week 17 to secure a win, clinching the NFC East division and the fourth seed in the conference. The calf injury Smith sustained back in Week 14 against the 49ers continues to flare up and will prevent the veteran from suiting up against Tom Brady and the Buccaneers on Saturday night. Fourth-year back up quarterback Taylor Heinicke will get his second start against the Bucs after making his debut in Week 16.
