Justin Cannon brings proven three-down production and playmaking upside to Texas State
Cannon profiles as a disruptive, all-around defensive back/box defender with proven production at multiple stops, including strong tackling, ball skills, and backfield impact; in 2024 he earned second-team All-MVC honors with 83 tackles, 3.5 tackles for loss, 13 passes defended, and 3 interceptions, then followed with a 2025 season at Bowling Green that included 57 tackles, 7 tackles for loss, 2 sacks, 3 pass breakups, 2 interceptions, and a fumble recovery. He looks like a high-motor, assignment-sound fit for a defense that wants versatility, physicality, and turnover creation.
