BYU CB Cannon DeVries is a young, physical defensive back with early playmaking flashes
DeVries is a 6-foot, 185-pound freshman cornerback for BYU who has already shown some versatility and activity on special teams and defense, including 2 total tackles and a half tackle for loss in 2025; his EA Sports College Football 27 rating sits at 67, suggesting a developing player rather than an immediate star[1][2]. His appeal is in the upside: he brings size for the position, a local Utah background, and an early willingness to contribute in multiple phases, which can matter for teams looking for a coachable, depth-building CB with room to grow[1][2].
