Je'Careon Lathan brings experienced, physical safety play to Northwestern State
Lathan is a **6-0, 180-pound graduate safety** with a journeyman resume across Texas State, Old Dominion, Trinity Valley, and Northwestern State, giving the Demons a veteran defender who knows multiple systems and can help stabilize the back end.[3][2] His production has been modest in recent seasons—two tackles in six games at Texas State in 2024 and limited tackle totals at Old Dominion—but his earlier scouting notes describe him as a **long, physical athlete with excellent ball skills**, which suggests upside as a coverage-oriented safety and special-teams contributor.[8][5]
