Starting quarterback AJ McCarron has turned to tight end Brad Smelley seven times this season, more than anyone else, besides Marquis Maze. Smelley seems to enjoy his prominence in the Crimson Tide’s passing game.
“I feel like I can make plays, and me and AJ have good chemistry,” Smelley said. “I’m looking forward to making more plays in the future.”
While Smelley’s numbers stand out for a tight end, he has been one of many for the Tide this season. Twelve players have caught passes for the Tide this season.
“AJ spreads the ball out well,” Smelley said. “He really goes through his reads and progressions, and he finds the open man.”
