Jay Stanton brings proven Samford production and big-play scoring
Jay Stanton is a productive, versatile Samford back whose calling card is steady rushing volume plus real touchdown punch—he led the Bulldogs with 775 rushing yards and 5 scores in 2023, and a preview source later credited him with 971 yards and 11 TDs in the prior season.[4][6] He has also shown receiving utility out of the backfield, which makes him more than a straight-line runner.[4] The upside: reliable workload, proven red-zone finishing, and enough explosiveness to fit an offense that wants an every-down playmaker rather than a one-trick tailback.[1][4][6]
