Trey Payne brings ball-hawking instincts and steady slot-speed fit to Miami (OH) at cornerback
Payne’s profile points to a disruptive, instinctive defensive back with proven turnover production in high school, including 55 tackles and 6 interceptions as a senior at Klein Oak, plus all-district recognition in his final two seasons. He also arrives with elite context for a small-bodied corner at 5-8, 153, suggesting a likely fit as a quick, technical cover man who has to win with anticipation, leverage, and competitiveness rather than pure size. If you want a DB who can trigger fast and challenge throws, he’s the kind of under-the-radar athlete worth a close look.[3][4]
