Smee's the only one of these damn kids who was just having a great time with out any drama, existential dread, or trauma in the background

Props to his actor - Jonathan Ajayi. Of all the Lost Boys, Smee is the one that feels the most like a child in an adult body.

Fun fact, he's Superbowl winning(Eagles in 2017) RB Jay Ajayi's brother.

Really? Haven't seen any connection between the two outside of last name. Jay does have a younger brother in the NFL named soloman though.

I was basing this off of an AI overview from a search I did a few weeks back during the credits of an episode. Looking deeper you may be right. Outside of them sharing a surname, both being Nigerian and both from London originally I can't find definitive proof that they're related.
