Jets' Smith not sure when he'll return from ACL injury

New York Jets wide receiver Devin Smith won't put a timeline on his recovery from a season-ending ACL injury.

Smith, selected in the second round of the 2015 NFL Draft, recorded nine receptions for 115 yards and a touchdown in 10 games before his knee injury cut his rookie season short.

Entering his sophomore campaign, Smith revealed that he's running again and working on his lateral movement.

"I feel great with everything I’m doing," Smith said Friday to Zac Jackson of Pro Football Talk. "I'm starting to run a lot more, doing a lot more cutting and really trying to push. I have a much better idea of what I can do and can't do right now with my running and my rehab, and that's a good sign."

Smith said he's relying on Jets personnel to provide him with a timeline for his recovery, although it remains ambiguous ahead of training camp.

"It's one day at a time. I really do feel better most days than I did the day before, the week before," Smith said. "They haven't told me much about a timetable because the focus is just on me getting better. I know when camp starts, (how much time) we have, and I'm just glad I'm making the progress I'm making now. Hopefully we keep going in the right direction."

After an inconsistent rookie year, the Jets hope Smith can emerge as a valuable contributor to the team's passing game soon.
