Ballhawk safety with a proven nose for the football
Jaheim Mullen enters the 2026 season at Stephen F. Austin as a mature, transfer safety who already showed real playmaking chops at Wingate in the 2023 season, posting 49 tackles, 7 pass breakups, and 1 interception in 11 games. He carried that disruption into SFA in 2024, where team stats credited him with 4 interceptions, and game notes showed he strung together takeaway-heavy stretches against quality opponents. Why care? He looks like a rangy, instinctive defensive back who can tilt a game with coverage awareness and timely ball production—exactly the kind of senior-ish, high-IQ safety coaches trust in the back end.
