Safety Jay Stanley (Southern Miss)

Stanley declared for the 2024 NFL draft but unfortunately, I have been unable to find any information on him or even an UDFA status.  In 2022, he made the PFF College All-Ameria Third Team.  Young man had a knack for forcing fumbles and shown hands for the interceptions.  Had great height and weight measurements standing 6'2" and 215 pounds.  Seems like Jay fell off the grid.  Figured his he might have been on the Colts radar given his measurements and statistics.  Anybody have any additional details?

Found Stanley’s Pro Day Results from 03/25/2024.  Hands 9 3/8, decent wingspan of 79 ½”. Stanley ran slower at his pro-day than Kamren Kinchens did with a 4.78s 40-yard dash which was even worse than James Williams SAF Miami (FL).  Curious if he was injured or that Is his top speed.  His vertical was only 33” which was still better than Jaylon Carlies, Josh Proctor, Patrick McMorris, Demani Richardson, and James Williams.  Even his broad jump was much better than those mentioned above, except Josh Proctor (10’1”), and bested Kamren Kinchens, Kitan Oladapo, and Daijah Anthony from the Combine.  Stanley’s 3-Cone Drill and 20 Yard Shuttle were actually better than some of the cornerbacks drafted this time around.  

 

Still went through PFF's recent 2024 UDFA tracker and still could find Stanley mentioned.  Guess teams are ignoring him with such a slow 40-yard dash time.  If he was injured might account for his speed and sub-par vertical jump.
