I thought he was out for the season?

[Flamengo1265]

I just thought he ran into the locker room out of embarrassment or frustration.

[KidNme]

Kind of surprised really. Thought for sure they'd say he was done for the season!

It looked like he pulled something as he had a limp in his step when he was running but he kept going so it's probably not too bad. A couple aspirin and a heating pad and he'll be right as rain I guess. Hope it's not that foot though!

[JustinB]

Good so now next week and can get hurt and be out for another year. Which the way this season has gone that wouldn't surprise me at all

[verified]

of course, you know he wants that game check, hell play and get torched by antonio brown and further prove to every one why hes not a #1 corner in this league.

Thats a great photo of jimmy smith by the way. Look at the fear in his eyes. Hes not tough hes soft. Ozzie doesnt know what to look for in finding ravens anymore the players hes brought i have been terrible. Dont get me started on kyle arrington lol such a joke. After belicheck gives up on a player he probably shouldnt be touched. but dont tell ozzie that

Big Ben is thrilled to hear some good news.....

[crazyboutravens]

Jimmy I know everyone is jumping on you but I remember when you said to the press that you were

not playing as bad as everyone thought you were.. I hope after watching film you have begun to

realize you ARE playing as bad as people said. I think you need to lose some weight because you

are too slow to catch anyone. That might also help you cover better.. Just sayin

[Purple&Black]

Shut him down. Don't risk it. 2 games left, and we're just playing for pride at this point.

[Purple&Black]

Big Ben is thrilled to hear some good news.....

To be honest, I think he was thrilled either way

[ellicottraven]

Good to hear! Come back and shut down A. Brown Mr. Smith!

[JetLife94]

Put jimmy on IR to. Might as well put all starters on IR and use a real youth injection lol.

[OzzieBisciotti]

Maybe it was the yellow pants that did Jimmy in- regardless, he should not be playing at this point in the year because there's nothing to play for- if he gets injured (again of course), then that means Oz will have to draft 2-3 more corners- then again, Oz forgets this position altogether on draft days any way- smh...

         hahahahaha might as well

Might as well be, its not like hes made much of a difference. He has the worse hands of any corner ive ever seen

[purpledown]

He should sit out this weeks loss to the Steelers as well as the last game, dont need a career ending injury.

Jimmy is the classic example of how Steve B gets suckered. Jimmy has one decent year and they sign him to a contract that second to Joe salery cap hit next year and then turns back into a weak rookie. Now they have to keep him no mater how bad he plays. Sound familiar?

[Crusader]

Big Ben is thrilled to hear some good news.....

The only thing Ben is worried about is if he can break Payton Manning record of touchdown passes on the Ravens. Which he currently holds second and third place. Funny how under Johns Era all these bad stats are taking place.  Brian B never had that problem.

Jimmy's contract is the same as every other above average CB in the league....His contract is not even close to those of top corners, great corners or even good corners. Another example of hate trading by the uninformed.

You'd love to see that. Even your beloved Squealers have a bad year every once and awhile (like choking at home in the play-offs last year). Maybe that explains your venom.....

Jimmi Smith is terrible, AGAIN, this year. No way he was hurt, he didn't d anything. Ravens has got to get rid of him. He brings on some major penalties thruout the game. Never close to his defender. Good bye, Jimmi

[Tdot.to.Bmore]

i wouldnt say i was happy to see Jimmy get injured, but i was looking forward to the young cbs to get a chance. I want to see more tray walker. Start his development now!

[Drew P]

Since Harbaugh has been spot on with injuries

In recent weeks he has barely been targeted on throws.  That alone should tell you something.

[steelcityraven]

Jimmy is a top CB when healthy.... 2 problems with that statement. 1. He has been injured a good deal throughout his career. Hope he is better learning how to prepare and take care of his body to add some longevity to his career. 2. He is a top notch CB who has been inconsistent at best and I blame that on this defense scheme. he is a product of a scheme that has not allowed 1 DB to excel in this system. NOT a single DB has played consistently well under dean pees... NOT ONE! Help Jimmy and the rest of the DB's out and get rid of Pees for Christmas!

If Jimmy could get a pick vs Big Jen and lead us to a victory this week.. that would be our 2015 super bowl ... to sweep the sqeelers.

[OzzieBisciotti]

It would be "new" to have an article on when Jimmy Smith is NOT injured.... SMH... Oz gave him a huge contract too- he's not a shut down corner, no offense.. and he's always injured like Webb...

He is currently 6th in the league in yearly average, behind only Revis, Sherman, Peterson, Haden and Maxwell(LOL).  I think he's worth it personally, I haven't seen him picked on in any one game since Amari Cooper torched him early in the year.

 

But to your original point, he does seem to be everyone's scapegoat over the last few weeks for some reason..
