Lengthy, versatile FIU-bound CB Christian Barrett brings size and two-way playmaking
Christian Barrett, a 6-foot-3, 185-pound cornerback from Gadsden County (Class of 2025), signed with FIU and drew attention for his rare length, ball skills, and willingness to play both sides of the ball. In the 2024 season, he posted 48 total tackles and also caught 18 passes for 335 yards and 4 touchdowns, showing real competitive juice and value beyond pure coverage. The fit makes sense for a defense that wants a tall, physical outside corner with upside—he looks like a high-ceiling defender if his technique keeps catching up to his frame.
