EJ Wilborne brings steady, versatile DB production to VMI
In the 2025 season, EJ Wilborne showed reliable back-end value for VMI, finishing with 48 total tackles, 21 solo stops, 27 assists, one interception, and one forced fumble across his career totals listed by ESPN. The 2026 VMI roster notes that he was a freshman in 2024 who appeared in six games and made his debut against William & Mary, then added tackles against Georgia Tech and Norfolk State, which points to a player already trusted in multiple game situations. His high-school résumé also shows two-way athleticism at defensive back and wide receiver, making him a fit for teams that value versatility, competitiveness, and room to keep developing.[1][4][5]
