Young SMU corner with early recruiting buzz, still building his college résumé
Alexander Rodgers entered SMU as a three-star cornerback and, in the 2024 season, appeared in two games with one tackle, so the sample is small but the upside is clear[1][3]. At 5-foot-10 and about 165-170 pounds, he brings compact speed and enough ball production from high school to suggest coverage instincts and playmaking feel, with three interceptions across his prep career highlights[1][4]. He chose SMU over several Power Four offers, which says plenty about his recruiting value and competitive profile[1]. Bottom line: he looks like a developmental fit for a team that wants an athletic, feisty CB with room to grow into a bigger role[1][3][4].
