Fall camp is underway and the Michigan State football team has finished its first scrimmage.

Jonathan Smith had a lot to say about the Spartans' progress and how it has translated onto the field.

One particular thing he mentioned was freshman tight end Jayden Savoury and how he was much further along than expected.

Smith: “Jayden Savoury has made some plays, caught a touchdown on Saturday.

We knew he was athletic but we’ve been really happy with his physicality.”— SpartanMag.com (@TheSpartanMag) August 11, 2025

Savoury comes in to East Lansing as a uber athletic tight end with a basketball background.
