Born in Islington, London,[2] Comley joined Queens Park Rangers Academy at the age of nine, where he progressed through the age groups to eventually make his first-team debut in 2015.[3] He made his club and Premier League debut on 24 May 2015 as an 80th-minute substitute for Karl Henry during QPR's 5–1 defeat at Leicester City on the final day of the season.[4]

After facing Carlisle United in the League Cup first round on 25 August 2015,[5] Comley made a loan move to the League Two club on 21 January 2016 in an initial month-long deal.[6] He made his United debut ten days later, starting in their 3–0 home defeat by Everton in the fourth round of the FA Cup.[7] In just his third appearance for the club, Comley was sent off for a second bookable offence during Carlisle's 1–0 league defeat to Newport County on 13 February.[8] His loan was extended until the end of the season in March 2016.[9] He went on to make 13 appearances for the Cumbrians.[10]

On 31 August 2016, Comley signed for League Two side Grimsby Town on loan until January 2017.[11] He made his debut on 3 September during Grimsby's 2–2 draw at Notts County.[12] He made 22 appearances for Grimsby in all competitions before he returned to QPR in January. He made one appearance for his parent club,[13] before rejoining Grimsby on loan until the end of the season.[14] He made a further 13 league appearances for the club.[13]

On 31 August 2017, Comley joined League Two club Colchester United on loan until January 2018.[15] He made his Colchester debut on 9 September in their 3–1 win against Crawley Town.[16] At the completion of his loan, he had made 23 first-team appearances for the U's.[17]
