2022 Season Countdown: #109 Peyton Smith
Name: Peyton Smith
Height: 6’3″
Weight: 192 lbs.
High school: Traverse City (MI) Central
Position: Quarterback
Class: Redshirt sophomore
Jersey number: #17
Last year: I ranked Smith #96 and said he would be a backup quarterback (LINK). He played in one game.
TTB Rating: N/A
Michigan seems to have built up a pretty solid quarterback room. In a way, I think some of the walk-ons are more impressive than some of the scholarship players. Smith has potential and value as a scout team player, but with so many scholarship quarterbacks on the roster – and Davis Warren seemingly moving up the ranks – I don’t think that Peyton Smith is going to get much of a shot, at least not in 2022.
Prediction: Backup quarterback
