FIU’s versatile, high-upside defensive piece with a football background
Felder is a former Stranahan standout who came to FIU as a 5-10, 195-pound athlete and brings a multi-sport, multi-role background that can translate into physical, adaptable play in the secondary.[1][10] Publicly available FIU roster data shows him as a freshman-era addition who saw action in one game in 2021, while recruiting listings noted him as a safety/running back type with a compact build and strong athletic profile.[1][13] The main reason to care: he looks like a developmental DB with toughness, versatility, and upside rather than a finished product, which makes him a potentially useful fit for a staff that values position flexibility and special-teams grit.[1][10]
