Jimmy Wyrick brings speed, ball production, and veteran versatility to SMU’s secondary
Wyrick looks like a plug-and-play safety for SMU in the 2026 season: after a 2025 campaign at UTSA with 62 tackles, 8 pass breakups, 2 fumble recoveries, a forced fumble, and an interception, he arrives as a disruptive, rangy defender who clearly has a nose for the ball. He’s not the biggest safety, but his quickness, acceleration, and proven production make him a strong fit if SMU wants a high-energy playmaker who can cover ground and trigger downhill fast.
