Carted off the field in the first quarter, high ankle sprain, a few weeks they say
from rotoworld:
Kevin Smith said after Thursday's game that his ankle sprain "wasn't that bad" and suggested he still has a chance to play in Week 13.
"It wasn't that bad, it's just a matter of I couldn't cut," said Smith. "If I can't help, I can't play. That's the bottom line. I've got 10 days. In my mind, I'll be ready. We will see what happens." While Smith's account does seem overly optimistic, it's a good sign that he left Ford Field without the aid of crutches. Perhaps it's not a high ankle sprain after all.
so who knows
You know what's crazy, Smith got more points in one quarter than Ryan Mathews has in each of his last two games, I'm keeping him.

I'm keeping him but this week was a big week and my opponent had Maurice Morris in a PPR league. Kevin Smith - 7.9 pts, Maurice Morris - 18.1. fk

Dropped Maurice Morris for Kevin Smith
Turned on the game during the halftime report and just lolled at my bad luck. Decided to succumb to the turkey and took a nice afternoon nap instead of watching the rest of that game.

I know that feel bros. He's really injury prone but on the plus side he looked great out there today. The O line played great and he was really tearing it up until he injured himself (lol). I'd keep him around for one more week and think about giving him a shot again next week and just hope he doesn't get re-injured. Still bullish on the kid.

When I heard that Fred Jackson was on IR i immediately switched to Kevin Smith. It felt like a good idea and I was in a hurry since it was just a few minutes before the game and we can't move players 5 minutes before their games start.
Just a few moments later I was like "Wait, why are you doing this?" Immediately got him out of my roster and JUST IN TIME. I kid you not, he was locked for transfer the second that I had booted him from my team.
Surprised he didn't have a huge performance. Usually I have horrible luck. Maybe I have to do this more often from now on, change my lineups 10 seconds before the game starts so the fantasy gods can't react in time.

Update from rotoworld:
Citing a source with knowledge of the situation, Profootballtalk.com reports that Kevin Smith's ankle sprain is "mild," and that he has a chance to play against the Saints in Week 13.
Per PFT's Mike Florio, Smith "could be back next week." The Lions' Friday placement of Jahvid Best (concussions) on injured reserve seemed to indicate that Smith's ankle sprain was indeed of the high variety, but there's now reason to believe that he's avoided a significant, multi-week injury. We'll know more next week. Don't drop Smith in any fantasy leagues.
Possible championship battle next week, would be nice to have him back

I started him over Shonne Greene, so I'm happy with 8 points, even if Greene goes off big time. No idea that he got injured in the first quarter, just thought he had an average game. Picked up Addai this week as well, just to keep him on the bench for injury replacement.
