Harvard DB John Chung: Reliable depth with a tackling-first profile
John Chung is a junior Harvard defensive back who showed incremental on-field role growth in the 2025 season, appearing in six games and recording solo tackles against Stetson, Cornell, Merrimack, and Columbia. His calling card is steady, assignment-sound depth rather than splashy production, and his background as a multi-year defensive back with game experience suggests he can compete in a disciplined system. He looks like a fit for teams valuing reliability, special-teams value, and a low-mistake defender over pure ball-hawk upside.
