versatile DB with real ball skills and position flexibility
Cedric Franklin II has the profile of a useful, scheme-flexible defensive back: he’s been described as someone who can play both corner and safety and who makes opponents work for every catch. Reliable public stat lines are thin for his current 2026 Sacramento State situation, so the bigger takeaway is his versatility, physicality, and ability to move around the secondary without looking out of place. That kind of defensive chess piece can be a sneaky-good fit for a staff that values adaptability, special teams grit, and matchup coverage over pure highlight noise.
