"Jackson Bennee's field vision and authority in the deep third make him a defensive architect. His blend of size, transitional fluidity, and an aggressive click-and-close allows him to dictate the passing game's terms, disguising coverages and attacking the football. He projects as a versatile, high-impact starting safety from day one."
A former walk-on from Holladay who went from six tackles as a backup to 64 tackles, four interceptions and two blocked kicks in 2025, and now carries a Paul Hornung Award watch-list tag into his junior year.
What he does well
- 01Deep middle range — He covers the post from a single-high alignment with long, efficient strides and arrives on throws that look open from the pocket.
- 02Ball production — Four interceptions and five pass breakups in his first season as a starter came from reading route concepts, not from gambling.
