After transferring to Thompson earlier last year, Jared Smith Jared Smith 6'6" | 235 lbs | EDGE Thompson | 2025 State AL went on to have one of his best seasons yet this past season. Smith, an extremely talented EDGE, has dominated offensive lines across the state since his freshman season and did more of the same last fall. Standing at 6’6 235, Smith has a huge frame and tons of athleticism he uses to beat offensive linemen in the trenches. Smith has a great package of moves he uses to rush the passer and frequently finds himself in the backfield generating pressure and sacks on the quarterback every passing down. In addition to his pass-rushing skillset, Smith does a fantastic job setting the edge and getting after the run as well. He plays with a ton of pursuit, has a great motor, doesn’t give up on plays, and will take down the ball carrier regardless of where he’s lined up pre-snap. Last fall, Smith had a great senior season where he racked up 89 total tackles (55 solo, 22 for loss), 10.5 sacks, 23 hurries, 4 pass breakups, and an interception. Watch out for Smith at the next level, he’s heading to Auburn and is sure to be a huge defensive playmaker there!
