Re-signing Xavier Smith does nothing to solve Rams' receiver problems
The Los Angeles Rams clearly needed receiver help, so they went out at the trade deadline and …brought back Xavier Smith?
Well, that ought to fix things.
It's not a pure addition. The Rams signed Smith off the San Francisco 49ers' practice squad to account for Jordan Whittington being placed on injured reserve. Whittington had been nursing a back injury and was barely involved on offense over the past two weeks.
Smith, meanwhile, returns to Los Angeles after being waived in early October. It's hardly the move Rams fans had hoped for to address the injury absences of Davante Adams and Puka Nacua. Who will Matthew Stafford even throw to?
Re-signing Xavier Smith doesn't move the needle
