Delaware safety Dannell Jester brings ball-hawking instincts, track speed, and captain energy
Dannell Jester is the kind of defensive back Delaware can build trust in fast: a 2025 Thomas County Central product who played on a 51-3 run, served as a three-year captain, and piled up 111 tackles, 9.0 tackles for loss, eight interceptions, and 16 pass breakups in high school. His differentiators are range, anticipation, and playmaking—he was also a track sprinter, which usually shows up when the ball is in the air. If you want a safety with production, toughness, and leadership, this is a smart fit.
