Bishop Fitzgerald is a ball-hawking USC safety with proven turnover production
Fitzgerald projects as a high-impact safety because his game is built on instinct, range, and playmaking: in 2025 at USC he recorded 51 tackles, 5 interceptions, and 3 passes defended in 10 games, and his recent scouting reports highlight strong coverage traits and rare ball production for the position.[12][16] The main fit question is speed—he ran 4.55 in pre-draft testing—but his production, experience, and reputation as a disciplined, opportunistic defender make him a good fit for a team that values center-field instincts and takeaway ability over pure track speed.[10][13][16]
