Former Stanford safety with special-teams grit and high football IQ
Brent Seals was a depth safety for Stanford whose value came from versatility, toughness, and reliability rather than splashy production; as a junior in 2011 he did not see action, and in 2010 he played in four games with one tackle, while Stanford’s roster notes credit him with a track background and a strong prep résumé at Bishop Amat, where he piled up 272 tackles, 12 sacks, and five interceptions over three varsity seasons[1][2].
