Jackson Benjamin brings playmaking juice and back-end versatility to Morehead State
Benjamin’s 2024 season showed a legit impact defensive back: in 12 games, he totaled 31 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 1.5 sacks, 2 interceptions, 2 quarterback hurries and a forced fumble, giving Morehead State a disruptive, high-motor defender who can affect all three levels of the field.[1][3] The big differentiator is his two-way playmaking profile—he is not just making routine stops, he is creating negative plays and turnovers, which is exactly what teams want from an aggressive DB who can fit the run and bait quarterbacks.[1][3]
