Jamal Merritt brings veteran ball skills and downhill toughness to Albany’s secondary
In the 2015 season, Albany safety Jamal Merritt was a true playmaker, starting all 11 games and finishing with 59 tackles, four interceptions, and a forced-fumble impact that popped on film as much as it did on the stat sheet.[2][4][11] He stood out for his instincts in coverage, willingness to hit, and knack for turning defensive snaps into momentum swings, which is exactly the kind of safety profile teams love when they need range plus reliability.[3][8][10]
