Dylan Merrell brings size, experience, and steady production to LIU’s secondary
Merrell looks like a dependable, physical DB for LIU: at 6-1, he has the frame to match up well on the perimeter, and in 2024 he played in 11 games and made 30 tackles, showing consistent involvement rather than flash-only impact. He arrived with strong prep credentials as a 3-star prospect and a top-70 overall recruit in Georgia by Rivals, which supports his upside as a cover defender with versatility. If your team wants a mature, low-drama defensive back who can contribute right away and isn’t afraid to tackle, he’s a fit.
