Parris Smiley brings steady, versatile back-end depth to Albany
In the 2024 season, Parris Smiley played in 12 games for Albany and finished with 17 tackles, following a 2023 campaign in which he appeared in nine games and added six tackles, showing reliable rotational value rather than flashy box-score production.[4][1] At 5-foot-11 and 203 pounds, he profiles as a physical defensive back who has steadily earned snaps, and his multi-sport background and all-state high-school pedigree suggest toughness, competitiveness, and upside that go beyond the stat sheet.[2][4][7]
