Born in Clonmel, County Tipperary, Comerford first arrived on the inter-county scene at the age of sixteen when he first linked up with the Tipperary minors team before later joining the under-21 side. He made his senior debut during the 2015 league. Comerford immediately became a regular member of the starting fifteen. At club level Comerford plays with Kilsheelan-Kilcash.

He made his championship debut in 2015 against Waterford. On 31 July 2016, Comerford started as Tipperary defeated Galway in the 2016 All-Ireland Quarter-finals at Croke Park to reach their first All-Ireland semi-final since 1935.[2][3] On 21 August 2016, Tipperary were beaten in the semi-final by Mayo on a 2-13 to 0-14 scoreline.[4][5][6][7]

On 30 May 2017, Comerford was handed a 12-week suspension following an incident in a club game on 23 May.[8] He was reported by referee Paddy Russell for minor physical interference after he was sent-off against JK Brackens.[9]
