Edwin Dearman Jr. brings blue-collar versatility and special-teams value to Samford’s secondary
In the 2024 season, Samford safety Edwin Dearman Jr. showed up as a physical, multi-use defensive back with real special-teams utility, recording 5 tackles in the game log available from Fox Sports and appearing in ESPN’s career stat database as a Bulldog safety. His listed size — 5'11", 200 pounds — hints at a compact, sturdy build that fits a tackling-first role, and scouting coverage frames him as a rising prospect with a strong work ethic and a clear passion for the game. If you want a tough, coachable DB who can help on coverage teams and bring edge to the back end, he’s worth a look.
