About Colton
Expert Analysis
Rob Howe | Prep Redzone Scout
When you’re joined in a tight end room by a guy a year older heading to Texas A&M, there’s a good chance of being overshadowed. That was the case for Smith playing for Waukee as a junior in 2025. He made the most of his opportunities in the receiving game, hauling in a trio of passes for 67 yards and two touchdowns. Smith even contributed a solo tackle. He lists outside linebacker as his second position. Potential is prominent when viewing Smith’s junior highlight video. The first clip has him shifting left out of an H-Back spot, smoothly getting into a route, catching the ball, racing to the goal line and barreling over defenders into the end zone. It contained everything you’d like to see at tight end from a receiving standpoint. The second clip features his blocking, which already is effective and has a chance to tick up even more as his frame fills out.
