Jerrod Gentry Brings Veteran Safety Depth and Special-Teams Reliability to Buffalo
Gentry is a **fifth-year** Buffalo safety with a steady, team-first profile: in the 2024 season he played in 11 games mostly on special teams and recorded two tackles, and Buffalo listed him among its Academic All-District selections in 2026. He also brings a broader defensive background from Tennessee and Briarcrest Christian, where he played both receiver and defensive back and showed ball skills with six interceptions in high school. For a team, he looks like a dependable depth piece who adds experience, discipline, and versatility more than eye-popping box-score production.
