Zahbari Sandy’s upside is real — but injuries have slowed the climb
A 6-foot-2, 208-pound redshirt junior DB for South Carolina, Zahbari Sandy was rated among the top defensive backs in Washington, D.C. as a recruit and has been described by the program as a versatile, physical defender who can match bigger targets with safety size and cornerback feet. The big caveat: his Carolina career has been hit hard by injuries, including a torn ACL in spring 2024, so the key question is availability as much as talent. If he’s healthy, he’s a legit developmental fit with SEC-level tools.
