Hollywood Smothers

2025 Fantasy Outlook
Smothers is primed to be the top dog in the Wolfpack running back room after largely sharing that title with Jordan Waters last season. Though Waters logged the most carries (95), Smothers finished with the most yards (571) and was also the top receiving threat in the backfield, corralling 19 passes for 263 yards and two touchdowns. Now, this should be Smothers' room, one he'll share with a handful of unproven freshmen. Overall, this is an offense that should be trending upwards, and a big reason why is promising mobile quarterback CJ Bailey. Bailey was thrown into the fire as a true freshman last season, but still finished with respectable numbers (2,413 yards, 17 touchdowns, 64.9 completion percentage, as well as 279 rushing yards and five rushing scores). The presence of a dynamic dual-threat in the Wolfpack backfield, especially one who should only improve as a sophomore, bodes well for NC State's running game and Smothers' production as well.

Tops 100 yards from scrimmage
October 27, 2025
Smothers notched eight carries for 86 yards and one touchdown and caught 3 of 5 targets for 25 yards during Saturday's 53-34 loss against Pittsburgh.
ANALYSIS
Smothers saw a reduced workload for a third straight game, receiving just 11 touches Saturday. He made the most of his opportunities, though, averaging 10 yards per touch. Smothers saw 16 touches in Week 7 and six touches in Week 6. He had received at least 19 touches in every game before Week 6. Blowouts have been the primary reason for Smothers' decreased involvement. On the year, Smothers has 825 rushing yards, six rushing touchdowns, 28 receptions, 170 receiving yards and one touchdown.
