In 2016, with the Suns' list severely impacted by injury, coach Rodney Eade moved Day into defence where he proved to be an effective tall defender. He was expected to return to the forward line in 2017, but suffered a serious hip injury in the pre-season clash against the Brisbane Lions, which ultimately resulted in him missing the entire 2017 season.

Day made his AFL debut for the Gold Coast Suns against the Brisbane Lions in round 7 of the 2011 season. He kicked a career high four goals against Collingwood in 2014.

Day was born in Adelaide, South Australia. His grandfather Ian Day and great-uncle Robert Day both had long SANFL careers, while his uncle Tim Day represented the Australian national baseball team.
