The Facts:
Two short weeks after injuring his groin, Smith is able to run on the treadmill again. Starting Monday, he can do strength training for his lower body and he will return to practice fairly soon. "I'm feeling good, a lot better than I did," Smith said. "I've been in here getting treatment and feeling better every day."

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Smith is eager to get back on the field, but knows he must be healthy before doing so, especially in mid-August. All he can do now is work hard and hope that he gets better. "I just have to be doing extra stuff – staying after practice, running extra routes, working with the quarterbacks when I have time off, that's pretty much all I can do," Smith said. "It is the preseason, however, and the goal is to have a healthy season. ..." True enough. Meanwhile, rookie Brent Celek continues to gain valuable experience -- and impress -- in Smith's absence.
