Ball-hawking Marist safety Kyle Coffindaffer brings proven turnover production and steady starting experience
Coffindaffer profiles as a high-motor, impact safety who produced **45 tackles and a team-best 3 forced fumbles in 2023**, after starting all 11 games for Marist, and he had already shown playmaking upside with a 2021 season that included **71 tackles** and an interception. [2][7][8] What makes him intriguing is the combination of durability, aggressive run support, and a clear knack for creating turnovers—traits that translate well for a defense that wants a dependable, physical back-end defender rather than just a coverage body.
