Cannon now holds five D1 offers from NAU, New Mexico, New Mexico State, Utah Tech, and Dartmouth and is one of the top ranked uncommitted 2027 prospects in the state. He’s a dynamic defender at 6’3” 195 lbs. with the skillset to be recruitable at multiple positions and in different schemes. Length is an asset giving him extra range to close throwing windows and the reach to disrupt receivers at the catch point. He’s a high level competitor that is looking to make plays and triggers without hesitation. Good short area burst and quickness out of his transition, he closes ground in a hurry and responds well to breaks and ball movement in real time. Equally comfortable in man or zone showing the ball skills to locate and play the throw whether he’s working from depth or in tight coverage. Strong tackler that uses good technique and force in space. Projects as a scheme versatile piece for the secondary with a high ceiling still to tap into.
Versatile 6’2” 190 lbs. DB with the size, physicality, and skillset to line up at any position in the secondary. Brings an aggressive, attacking style of play and consistently looks to be a playmaker. Shows good reactionary quickness, allowing him to accelerate out of his transition, close space, and rapidly respond to route breaks and ball movement. Comfortable in both man or zone coverage, with the ball skills to track and play the football in the air whether from depth or in tight coverage. Strong at the catch point, he plays through the hands to disrupt timing and compete for contested throws. Reliable and strong one on one open field tackler who breaks down well, uses proper leverage, and finishes plays. Offered by NAU, he projects as a high-upside, scheme versatile DB whose physical tools, competitiveness, and adaptability make him a valuable asset in the secondary.
