Justin Preaster is a reliable, high-volume tackler for The Citadel’s secondary
In 2024, Justin Preaster appeared in 10 games and finished with 25 total tackles for The Citadel, after posting 22 tackles in 2023 across 11 games; his back-to-back tackles for loss against Western Carolina and VMI show he can make disruptive plays near the line of scrimmage.[2] At 6-3 and 200 pounds, he brings good DB size, a steady role-player profile, and enough production to suggest dependable field awareness rather than flash-based hype.[3] He looks like a fit for teams valuing physicality, consistency, and depth in the defensive backfield.[2][3]
