Max Garrison brings veteran depth, special-teams juice, and captain-level reliability to SDSU
In the 2026 season, San Diego State safety Max Garrison stands out less as a stat-sheet monster and more as a steady, trusted veteran: he was named a team captain, has appeared in 42 career games, and has 11 career special-teams tackles with three kick returns. He’s a high-floor fit if you want a smart, versatile defensive back who shows up, plays tough, and adds leadership and scholarship-grade consistency, even if the splash plays haven’t piled up.
