Tylan Boykin brings length, speed, and multi-sport versatility to EMU’s secondary
Boykin is a young Eastern Michigan defensive back with clear upside: in his 2025 season he played in four games and finished with four tackles, while his recruiting background shows a versatile athlete who starred at Archbishop Hoban as a DB, QB, and returner. EMU lists him at 6'1", 175, and his EA Sports profile grades him with good speed, acceleration, agility, and stamina, which fits a coverage-first defender. He looks like a developmental fit for a team that wants athleticism, range, and special-teams value more than a finished product.
