Summary
Tyreke Smith carries a 38.0 dynasty score, ranking 526 at DL.
His 1.5 sacks and 15 games played in 2025 indicate a stable production trajectory. However, his age (26) and 1 year remaining on his contract may impact his ceiling.
Projection Rationale
Smith’s 1.5 sacks and 15 games played in 2025 indicate a stable production trajectory. His Verdict efficiency grade at the 50th percentile and Verdict durability grade at the 75th percentile suggest he will maintain a consistent usage level. However, his contract situation with only 1 year remaining may impact his role security.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2025. Smith’s Verdict durability grade percentile is 75th, indicating a relatively low injury risk for a player of his age (26).
Opportunity Notes
Smith’s snap share remained stable at 16.0% from 2023 to 2025. However, his role may be impacted by his contract situation with only 1 year remaining.
Scheme Fit Analysis
Steve Spagnuolo coordinates a 4-3 defense with a 31.4% blitz rate. Smith’s production is directly affected by the 4-3 scheme and the defensive line’s rotation usage. The scheme may help Smith’s pass rush production, but his limited role and age may impact his ceiling.
Trend Assessment
Stable. Smith’s snap share has remained stable at 16.0% from 2023 to 2025, indicating a consistent role.
Ceiling / Floor
Ceiling: DL2-DL3. Smith must maintain his current production level and the Chiefs’ defensive scheme must remain conducive to his pass rush production.
Floor: DL5. If Smith loses his starting role or the Chiefs’ scheme changes, his production will likely decrease, placing him in the DL5 tier. His trade value is 745, indicating a mid-tier asset.
