Smart, steady Furman safety with injury-tested upside
Pendleton is a **developmental safety** for Furman who earned late-season playing time in 2024 after battling injury, and his steady climb from freshman to redshirt junior shows the kind of persistence coaches value. Furman’s roster listing and position preview place him in a competitive safety group, while his academic honor roll recognition suggests a disciplined, dependable profile off the field. He does not yet have a stat-heavy résumé, but his value is in toughness, reliability, and room to grow—useful if you want a defender who can absorb coaching, stay ready, and compete for rotational snaps.[6][8]
