Conroy Cunningham II is a rising edge defender and 2025 All-SoCon performer for Samford
Cunningham has grown from a walk-on at Bethune-Cookman into a dependable, high-motor defensive end who earned Second Team All-SoCon honors in 2025 and drew attention as one of the better defensive performers at the 2026 National Scouting Combine. His appeal is his persistence, physical toughness, and steady year-to-year improvement, which suggest he can bring effort, discipline, and front-seven reliability rather than just raw production. For a team looking for a developmental edge rusher with leadership traits and proven special-teams/value-added experience, he is a legitimate fit.
