Quarterback Smith has made significant progress in his recovery, fully participating in practice on Thursday. This full session follows a more limited activity on Wednesday, suggesting his foot injury is no longer a major impediment.

In their recent Week 13 loss to the Chargers, Smith's performance included completing 18 of 23 passes for 165 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. He also had two rushing attempts for a loss of six yards and a fumble that Las Vegas recovered.
