Scouting Verdict

Charleston Southern transfer who was second-team All-Big South by the league's head coaches and Phil Steele fourth-team all-conference in 2025: 55 tackles, three forced fumbles and a career-high 11 tackles at Gardner-Webb. FCS level of competition tempers the projection.

Projected 2026 starter (DB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.4) · Sun Belt draft-temper.

Floor · 4.1

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.7.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.
