Elijah Reed brings length, production, and portal polish to Utah’s secondary
In the 2025 season at Akron, Elijah Reed posted 47 tackles, two interceptions, four pass breakups, a sack, and a forced fumble, then arrived at Utah as a 6-foot-3, 200-pound senior with real starting experience. He stands out for his size, physicality, and ball skills, and multiple reports say he allowed just one touchdown and posted a strong 77.6 PFF grade in 2025. Utah views him as a key fit for a competitive outside-corner spot, especially for a defense that values long, aggressive DBs who can tackle and play the ball.
