Two-Way Brighton Star with TE-Y Size and Defensive Grit for EMU
Brady Shelton, a 6-4, 240-pound Class of 2026 Tight End-Y from Brighton, MI, commits to Eastern Michigan as a rare two-way prospect who seals wins with game-clutching first-down runs on offense while anchoring final defensive stands as a DE. His differentiator is elite intensity and versatility—he doesn’t just fill a role; he finishes games, as seen in Brighton’s 21-14 victory over Northville where his TD run and defensive stop locked the win. With a 3.3 GPA and proven leadership, Shelton brings high-motor reliability and scheme flexibility to EMU’s 2026 roster, making him a perfect fit for teams needing a physical, battle-tested TE who can also contribute on defense in a pinch.
