Freshman safety Peyton Schrader is a depth piece with early tackling reps for Charleston Southern
In the 2026 season, Peyton Schrader has appeared in Charleston Southern’s early games and recorded 1 total tackle, giving the Buccaneers a young, active safety to develop on defense[1][2]. At 5-foot-11, 175 pounds, the freshman from Taylors, South Carolina profiles as a lean, instinctive back-end defender whose value right now is in his activity and willingness to get downhill rather than eye-popping production[1][2]. There is little public national buzz or news chatter yet, which usually means his upside is still more about projection than proven impact[5][14].
