  Kaiden Smith has played in at least 10 games during the last three seasons. Now he finally gets a chance to lead. Smith popped up in big spots during the last few years: a forced fumble in the 2017 Dollar General Bowl, playing in the fourth quarter against UNC last season. Now he's got his moment. Coach Shawn Clark and defensive coordinator Dale Jones have lauded Smith for his vocal presence this fall. - Winston-Salem Journal

  Here's a borderline fact worth remembering: App State defensive backs get NFL chances. The defensive back and safeties coaches have changed the last few seasons, but the results remain consistent. It's why Doug Middleton keeps getting picked up by NFL teams, why A.J. Howard always had a spot on a practice squad before starting his coaching career and why Tae Hayes went from undrafted to a roster spot. Shemar Jean-Charles could get that chance, too. He had a quiet but solid season in a first-year starter combo with Shaun Jolly. And if he can add another, Jean-Charles has smarts to warrant at least a chance. - Winston-Salem Journal

  Jalen Virgil is an off-the-bus specimen. He's 6-foot-1, 210 pounds, stacked up and has blazing speed. And if there's one guy who benefits most from the vacated snaps of Sutton's opt out, it's him. Virgil has always shown flashes, and he's worked hard during his App State career to become more comfortable as a pass catcher. He has 61 total receptions, 24 last season, and seven receiving touchdowns. His speed is NFL quality: 10.29 seconds in the 100-meter dash for the track team. If he puts together a quality season for what should be a high-scoring offense, he'll get attention. - Winston-Salem Journal

  Clark said he and Sutton talked over the past couple of weeks. Clark said that even if Sutton were to play, he wouldn't have been ready for the season opener against Charlotte. Sutton tore an ACL against Texas State last season. Now, Clark said, Sutton has more time to rehab and get healthy. Sutton spent his first college football season at Kansas State in 2016, then opted to transfer to App State before the 2017 season, which he sat out due to NCAA transfer rules. But when he was eligible to play with App State, he immediately made an impact. Sutton had 10 touchdown receptions in 2018, becoming the first App State wide receiver with double-digit TD catches since Brian Quick in the 2011 season. Last year, playing only nine games, he nearly matched his 2018 reception total (41 receptions to 44 previously) under then-head coach Eli Drinkwitz. He had eight catches and 173 yards and three touchdowns at Georgia State the week before the knee injury. Sutton's father, Clarence, was a safety at App State from 1993 to 1995. His younger brother, Coen, will join the program next season as a 2021 wide receiver recruit. - Winston-Salem Journal

  Wide receiver Corey Sutton of Appalachian State is opting out of the 2020 college football season. Sutton, who caught seven touchdown passes last season, announced the decision Tuesday on Twitter.
