Patriots' injuries push them toward a low-risk practice squad addition
"Smith spent his collegiate football career at Iowa, where he recorded 91 receptions for 1,046 yards and nine touchdowns through 39 games. After going undrafted in 2021, he signed with the Dallas Cowboys and went on to spend the next two seasons on the team's practice squad. During his pair of preseasons spent in Dallas, Smith totaled a combined 13 catches for 185 yards and two scores."
"He played in the 2023 XFL season with the DC Defenders, catching 10 passes for 132 yards and a touchdown while also returning 10 kickoffs for 218 yards in eight games. After his XFL campaign concluded, Smith signed with the Arizona Cardinals, appearing in two preseason games, but was released before the regular season began. He then returned to the Defenders, now a member of the UFL, in 2024, recording 18 receptions for 209 yards and two touchdowns across nine games."
The Patriots added Brandon Smith to their practice squad after Kayshon Boutte entered concussion protocol and DeMario Douglas suffered a hamstring injury. Smith played at Iowa, totaling 91 receptions for 1,046 yards and nine touchdowns in 39 games. After going undrafted in 2021, he spent two seasons on the Dallas Cowboys' practice squad and combined for 13 catches, 185 yards and two scores across two preseasons in Dallas. Smith played in the XFL (DC Defenders) and UFL, posted modest receiving and return numbers, briefly signed with the Arizona Cardinals, and spent most of 2024 on the New York Jets' practice squad.
