Shawn Russ Jr. brings size, versatility, and early-playmaking pop to Bethune-Cookman’s secondary
In the 2024 season, Shawn Russ Jr. logged 15 tackles for Bethune-Cookman, with 8 solo stops and 7 assists, and appeared in multiple defensive roles after arriving as a former three-star safety out of Fort Myers, Florida. He has the frame teams like in the secondary at 6-foot-0, 190 pounds, plus the multi-position background from high school that hints at real flexibility. The appeal here is development upside: he already showed he can get on the field, and his mix of physicality and versatility makes him the kind of DB who can carve out a useful, game-day role.
