Jake Smith brings veteran speed, homegrown grit, and a comeback story to Arizona State
In the 2024 season, Jake Smith gave Arizona State a versatile, experienced receiver with 6 receptions for 91 yards, plus 14 rushing yards and 152 kick-return yards—proof he can help in more than one phase of the game. He’s a former top recruit whose path has included injuries and eligibility drama, so the appeal is less about flashy volume and more about dependable separation, toughness, and knowing how to fight back. If a team wants a crafty, multi-use slot weapon with proven resilience, Smith fits the bill.
