Durham Smythe Career numbers in contract year
Smythe secured 34 of 41 targets for 357 yards across 17 games in 2021. He also had two carries for three yards.
Analysis: Smythe put together the best statistical season of his career at an opportune juncture, as both he and Mike Gesicki are scheduled for free agency this offseason. As a solid blocker and a capable, if unspectacular, receiver, Smythe shouldn't have much difficulty drumming up interest if he does hit the open market.
