Temple safety Javier Morton brings veteran size, steady tackling, and playmaking upside
Javier Morton is a 6-2, 195-pound safety who gave Temple a strong, veteran presence in 2024, finishing with 48 tackles and an interception after starting the first five games and hitting a career-high 10 tackles against Utah State.[2][1] His best selling points are his experience, size, and reliable run support, plus enough ball production to show he can create a turnover when the play comes to him.[2][1] The main question is durability, since his 2024 season included a missed game because of injury, but if you want a proven, physical safety with starter-level instincts, he fits the profile.[2]
