Aveon Smith brings dual-threat juice to Merrimack’s QB room
In the 2025 season, Aveon Smith showed enough mobility to matter even when the passing game was uneven: ESPN lists him with 48 completions on 96 attempts for 638 yards, 2 passing TDs, 2 INTs, plus 75 carries for 280 rushing yards and a rushing score[2][12]. That profile says “playmaker,” not just “pocket passer”—he can extend drives with his legs, stress defenses on designed runs, and give a team a physical, transfer-tested quarterback option with upside if the passing efficiency improves[1][12].
