Malekhi Weedon brings quick-twitch upside and early-ball production to Arkansas State’s secondary
Weedon is an ascending Arkansas State safety who already showed he can contribute in the box and in coverage, finishing 2025 with 8 tackles and 2 pass breakups while appearing in all 12 games, and his high school track record included 118 career tackles, 5 interceptions, and 2 fumble recoveries. He profiles as a fast, reactive defender with strong pursuit and hit power—backed by a 66 overall EA rating and notable speed/acceleration traits—so he fits best as a developmental playmaker who can help on special teams and grow into a reliable coverage safety.
