Jaylen Smith Jaylen Smith 5'10" | 205 lbs | RB/LB Talladega | 2027 AL is a talented RB who’s making his debut at Talladega this upcoming fall.

“Jaylen Smith is an explosive weapon out of the backfield who dominates opposing defenses with his vision, speed/acceleration, and contact balance. He sees the field incredibly well, finding lanes and following his blockers to rack up as many yards as he can each carry.

Smith’s athleticism really separates him as a runner. He has great burst with the ball in his hands, can make defenders miss, and has top end speed in the open field that completely separates him from defenses. When you combine that with his ability to withstand contact, step out of tackles, and play through his defenders, it makes him a valuable option out of the backfield.”

Smith was a really exciting player to watch this past year. Make sure you check out some of his film for yourself:
