Jaylen Simpson brings explosiveness and versatility to North Alabama's backfield
Jaylen Simpson is a freshman running back for North Alabama with a mostly unproven college résumé, so the key reason to watch him is projection: he profiles as a versatile, development-friendly back rather than a finished product. Public stat pages show no meaningful 2025 game log yet, which means his value will hinge on how quickly he can translate practice traits into game production. If you need a player with upside, adaptability, and room to grow, Simpson is worth tracking; if you want an immediate, highly documented workload winner, there just isn’t enough current evidence yet.
