Brandon Worsley brings experience, playmaking flashes, and a safety-first edge to EIU
In the 2025 season, Brandon Worsley played in eight games with three starts at safety for Eastern Illinois, finishing with 13 tackles, one interception, and a pass breakup before a season-ending injury at Charleston Southern[1][2]. The 2023 season showed his ball skills and versatility too: 22 tackles, one interception, two fumble recoveries, and three pass breakups in 10 games[1][2]. At 5-foot-11, 205 pounds, he looks like a sturdy, instinctive safety who can help in coverage and create turnovers; the catch is durability, so the big question is whether he can stay on the field long enough to cash in on that upside[1][14].
