Azarel Juste is Bryant’s ball-hawking DB with size and playmaking upside
In the 2025 season, Azarel Juste flashed as a disruptive Bryant defensive back, recording 2 interceptions, 10 total tackles, and 2 pass breakups, while giving the Bulldogs length at 6'2" and 195 pounds.[1][2][3] His best calling card is impact plays in coverage—he picked off passes in back-to-back games early in 2025 and later drew praise for four pass breakups over a three-game stretch, which points to instincts, range, and confidence rather than just raw tackle volume.[9][11][15] If a team wants a DB who can tilt the field, not just clean up after it, Juste fits the bill.[2][15]
