Scouting Report

July 29, 2026

Jalen Mayo

Houston · CB · Sr · 2027 Draft · Hampton, Va. · Phoebus HS

6-2 · 190 lbs

3.8

Long Shot

Floor 3.3 · Ceiling 3.9

#4188 overall · #498 CB of 15102

Scouting Verdict

FCS/D2-path safety with a productive 4-INT Stephen F. Austin season but no FBS tape yet; steps in as a projected starter. Graded as a developmental defender whose level-of-competition caps the current mark.

Ceiling · 3.9

Projected 2026 starter (DB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.1) · Big 12 draft-temper.

Floor · 3.3

Proven starter — high, stable floor · returning-starter role secures it; downside −0.5.

Pedigree

No composite recruiting rank on file.

Path: Stephen F. Austin → Virginia Union → Houston
