Young Duke corner with special-teams grit and ball skills
Vontae Floyd is a compact, physical Duke cornerback whose early value came from dependable special teams work and flashes in the secondary: in the 2024 season, he played in 11 games, totaled eight tackles, and forced a fumble recovery, including a career-high three tackles against Florida State. At 5-foot-10, he brings speed, willingness to hit, and enough versatility to help on coverage units while he develops as a true CB. The catch: his 2025 season was hampered by injury and limited to three games, so his fit depends on medical confidence and whether a team wants a developmental, high-energy defensive back with upside.
