Justin Harrington gives WVU an experienced, rangy safety with NFL-caliber size
Justin Harrington enters the 2026 season as a senior safety for West Virginia with a reputation for versatility, length, and high-end athletic traits at 6-foot-3 and 214 pounds. His path has been bumpy — an ACL injury cut short his Oklahoma stint in 2023, and he then logged eight games at Washington before landing at WVU — but the upside is real: he can play nickel, dime, or traditional safety, brings veteran transfer-portal maturity, and fits a defense that values interchangeable back-end pieces. He’s the kind of player you care about if you want size, experience, and flexibility over flashy box-score volume.
