Jaylon Smith signs a one-year deal with the Green Bay Packers

The Green Bay Packers agreed to terms Thursday morning on a one-year deal with linebacker Jaylon Smith, according to multiple reports.

Jaylon Smith #54 of the Dallas Cowboys celebrates after recovering a fumble in the first quarter against the Cincinnati Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium on December 13, 2020 in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Smith, who had played for the Cowboys since they selected him in the second round of the 2016 NFL Draft, was released earlier this week by Dallas.

Smith, 26, suffered a career-threatening knee injury - including ligament tears and nerve damage - during the 2016 Fiesta Bowl, his final game at Notre Dame.

Smith was a 2019 Pro Bowl selection.

The Packers have not announced Smith's signing. It is not known whether he might play Sunday against the Cincinnati Bengals at Paul Brown Stadium.
