Versatile DB with Dual-Threat HS Pedigree, Poised for Bigger Defensive Role at SDSU
Jakson Berman, a 5-11 safety for the San Diego State Aztecs, brings explosive athleticism from his standout high school days as a dual-threat QB at Valley Christian (San Jose, CA), where he threw for 25 TDs and 1,024 rushing yards with 13 scores in 2021[3][7]. After transferring from Washington—where he logged special teams snaps in the 2023 CFP Championship run—he appeared in four games on SDSU special teams in 2024, earning scout team honors early on[3]. His track speed in hurdles and sprints highlights elite burst and intensity, making him a differentiator for teams needing versatile, high-motor DBs with no major injury flags. Care because he's a developmental gem ready to contribute now; perfect fit for agile, special teams-heavy schemes.[3][1][7]
