Smith ruling Hawkins so early in the week suggests there's a very good possibility that his absence could be longer than just one week.
Before exiting Sunday's contest with the injury, Hawkins matched his season high with 11 tackles. Through seven games this season, Hawkins has 43 tackles, one forced fumble, one interception and three passes defended.
