Troy’s battle-tested, big-play back with a comeback story
B.J. Smith is a proven Troy running back whose calling card is toughness: he’s produced 2,203 career rushing yards and 23 rushing touchdowns for the Trojans, plus 532 receiving yards, showing real three-down value across his Troy career. In the 2020 season, after returning from a major injury setback, he still logged 277 rushing yards and three scores, which says plenty about his resilience and competitive edge. He’s the kind of back coaches trust when they want reliability, grit, and a runner who can handle contact without flinching.
