Smith caught 2-of-5 targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 17-3 loss to the Packers.
Smith was quiet for most of the game, before making a 47-yard catch late in the fourth quarter. He had a shot a touchdown late in the game, but could not come down with the pass in the end zone. He appeared to be frustrated at one point earlier in the game, when Colin Kaepernick badly overthrew him. Kaepernick had another rough game, so Smith was the team's leader in receiving yardage Sunday. The veteran Smith will try to get things going in Week 5 against the Giants.

Smith (knee) was targeted twice, but did not record a catch in Sunday's blowout loss to the Cardinals.
Despite falling behind early, the 49ers did not elect to air it out like they did against the Steelers in their 43-18 loss. Kaepernick had his worst game as a pro, and it left the 49ers with absolutely no positive fantasy performances. The silver lining for Smith is that he got through the game without aggravating his minor knee injury. If the 49ers want to keep up with Green Bay's high octane offense next week, they will have to air the ball out, which could bode well for Smith. He continues to be a boom-or-bust option.

Smith surfaced from Sunday's loss to the Cardinals with a minor knee injury, the San Jose Mercury News reports.
Smith was held without a catch in Sunday's blowout loss, continuing what has been an up-and-down opening three games for him with the 49ers. Although his knee ailment is considered minor, Smith's involvement in practice this week should be worthwhile to track.
Sun Sep 27 201514:41Smith (knee) active for Sunday's contest in Arizona
Smith (knee) is active for Sunday's contest in Arizona.
Generally a hit-or-miss option, Smith could find room to operate versus a Cardinals defense that has surrendered 13.2 YPC and two touchdowns to wide receivers this season.

Smith had a much better game Sunday against the Steelers, catching 6-of-7 targets for 120 yards and a touchdown to go along with a two-point conversion.
Smith was almost invisible in his 49ers debut against the Vikings, but he made his presence known by hauling in a 75-yard touchdown catch and the ensuing two-point conversion in the fourth quarter of this contest. The majority of Smith's production came in the second half with the game well out of reach, but it's still encouraging to see Smith and quarterback Colin Kaepernick link up consistently after the two got nothing going last week.

Smith was targeted three times, but ended the night with just one catch for 11 yards in Monday's win over the Vikings.
The 49ers' passing game was quiet all night, as they were content letting Carlos Hyde run all over Minnesota's defense. This could be a common trend going forward, which would limit Smith's big play ability. Owners should look to slot Smith in when San Francisco takes on a team that could go up big on them. That being said, Smith and the 49ers travel to Pittsburgh next week, and their high-octane offense combined with their weak secondary could result in a strong showing from Smith.
Thu Sep 10 201520:20Smith (knee) wasn't listed on 49ers' injury report Thursday
Smith (knee) wasn't listed on the 49ers' injury report Thursday, CSN Bay Area reports.
Smith's practice reps were limited in advance of the third exhibition due to a sore knee, but he still played in that contest, hauling in his sole reception of the preseason. Along with the veterans, he didn't suit up for the finale, though, so the first practice of Week 1 marked his first attempt to show off his health, which he passed. Expect Smith to work opposite Anquan Boldin for the first time since the Ravens' Super Bowl run to conclude the 2012 season.

Smith (knee) is unlikely to see any action in Thursday's final preseason game, the 49ers' official website reports.
Smith has been dealing with a minor knee contusion for the past couple of weeks, but he should be ready to go once the regular season begins. Thursday's likely absence is due to the nature of the final preseason game. Had this been a regular season game, Smith would be good to go. He will line up opposite Anquan Boldin this season as a starting wideout for his new club.

Smith (knee soreness) was limited to individual work at Tuesday's practice, John Dickinson of 957 The GAME reports.
This doesn't sound like anything more than typical soreness, and Smith has mostly enjoyed a healthy training camp. He'll provide the deep-threat complement to Anquan Boldin, who he previously worked alongside in Baltimore.

Smith didn't record a reception in Saturday's preseason loss to the Texans.
Smith only had one target on a deep go route that Colin Kaepernick slightly overthrew. Despite not being able to catch up to the ball, the play gave a glimpse of Smith's home run speed, something Kaepernick didn't have last season. He is expected to start alongside Anquan Boldin.
Tue Mar 10 201516:53Torrey Smith: Signs With 49ers
Smith has reached agreement on a five-year contract with the 49ers, ESPN's Adam Schefter reports.
San Francisco will reunite the Anquan Boldin-Torrey Smith wideout pairing that helped Baltimore beat them in the Super Bowl a few years back. While neither receiver is a true No. 1, Boldin and Smith do offer contrasting skill sets that make them a nice fit together. From a fantasy perspective, it's probably best to see Smith move on, as the Baltimore offense has never been a source of big numbers for wide receivers. However, the situation in San Francisco isn't much different from that in Baltimore, with Smith joining a team that's committed to a balanced offense while riding a non-superstar franchise quarterback. There's certainly room for improvement on Smith's 2014 receiving line that was held back by an unusual number of pass-interference penalties drawn, but the 26-year-old wideout doesn't figure to see a big jump in targets.
Sun Mar 8 201519:30Torrey Smith: Won't Re-Sign With Ravens
Smith, who said Sunday that he will not rejoin the Ravens, is expected to sign with the 49ers when free agency begins, Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports reports.
Smith's departure leaves a big hole in the Baltimore receiving corps, with Steve Smith the only healthy and proven commodity under contract for 2015. The 49ers apparently intend to reunite Smith and Anquan Boldin, making it much less likely that Michael Crabtree and Steve Johnson will be back with the team. Crabtree is set to become an unrestricted free agent, while Johnson is seemingly in danger of being released. We'll still have to see how the rest of the offseason shakes out, but a move to San Francisco would probably be a horizontal one for Smith's production, with his role of deep threat in a balanced offense unlikely to change.

Smith had three catches for a team-high 62 yards in Saturday's 35-31 playoff loss to the Patriots.
Joe Flacco threw four touchdowns, but none went to Smith, whose six targets were surpassed by Owen Daniels (11) and Marlon Brown (eight). Smith also committed two unsportsmanlike conduct penalties, letting his emotions get the better of him. He is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason.
Sat Jan 10 201516:58Smith returned to Saturday's playoff game against Patriots
Smith returned to Saturday's playoff game against the Patriots.
It appears as though Smith was taken to the locker room for precautionary purposes. He will look to build on the one catch for 22 yards he posted in the Ravens' opening scoring drive.

Smith headed to the locker room for a "general evaluation" early in the first quarter of Saturday's playoff game against the Patriots.
Smith was shaken up after making a catch over the middle of the field, only to be immediately hit hard by Patriots' safety Devin McCourty. Smith reportedly is not being evaluated for a concussion, but is officially questionable to return to Saturday's game.

Smith caught two passes for 28 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's playoff victory over the Steelers.
Smith caught just two of the six balls thrown his way, but he made the most of his opportunities by finding the end zone and adding a 17-yard gain. While the yardage numbers have not been there for Smith this season, he has been good for nearly a score per week with 12 receiving touchdown in 14 games -- including Saturday's -- beginning in Week 4.

Smith caught 4-of-7 targets for 83 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 20-10 win over the Browns.
Smith was quiet until midway through the fourth quarter, when he caught passes of 53 and 16 yards on consecutive plays to turn a 10-6 deficit into a 13-10 lead. In finishing the year with a 49-767-11 receiving line on 93 targets, he essentially cemented his pre-existing reputation as a big-play specialist without the chops to be more than a No. 2 receiver. With his contract set to expire at the end of the season, Smith will be an interesting player to keep an eye on. There's an argument to be made that the Ravens have underused him, and what he's lacked in consistent production he's largely made up for with big plays in timely situations. Before anything else happens, Smith will have a shot to improve his impending payday in a favorable first-round matchup with the shaky Pittsburgh secondary.
Mon Dec 22 201402:03Smith caught 5-of-12 targets for 59 yards and two touchdowns in ...
Smith caught 5-of-12 targets for 59 yards and two touchdowns in Sunday's 25-13 loss to the Texans.
The Ravens got awful play from both their quarterback and offensive line, so Smith was the closest thing to a bright spot, even though he managed fewer than five yards per target. While yet to top six receptions or 98 yards in a game this season, Smith has a career-high 10 touchdowns, and he's also drawn a ton of pass interference penalties. He'll face a talented but injury-riddled Cleveland secondary in Week 17.

Smith (knee) is not listed on Wednesday's practice participation/injury report, the Baltimore Sun reports.
Smith played 51 snaps this past Sunday against the Jaguars (catching two passes for 16 yards), with his absence from the Ravens' injury report Wednesday suggesting that the wideout is moving past the knee sprain that had been slowing him of late.
Mon Dec 15 201411:55Smith (knee) caught two passes on three targets for 18 yards in ...
Smith (knee) caught two passes on three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's win over the Jaguars.
Smith, who has been dealing with a knee issue, drew a starting assignment Sunday, and with no reported setbacks in the contest, he should be a go this coming weekend against the Texans. We'll monitor the wideout's practice participation in the coming days in any case, in order to confirm that outcome.
