Iesa Jarmon brings size, versatility, and a proven ball-hawking background to Akron’s secondary
A 6-foot, 185-pound graduate student DB, Iesa Jarmon gives Akron a mature, physical defensive back with real developmental upside: he recorded 14 tackles, four pass breakups, and an interception at Iowa Western in 2023, then appeared in seven games for Akron in 2024 and added two tackles.[3] His value is less about flashy production and more about steadiness, length, and experience across multiple stops, plus a recruiting pedigree that once made him a top Ohio defensive-back prospect.[3][10] He looks like a fit for a team needing reliable depth, special-teams toughness, and a corner who can compete in tight coverage rather than win purely on stats.[3][4]
