Freshman DB D’Andre Artis-Boone brings length, athletic upside to NCCU’s secondary
D’Andre Artis-Boone is a freshman defensive back for North Carolina Central in the 2026 season, and the early read is all about upside: he’s listed at 6-foot-1, 175 pounds and was praised by NCCU for his size, length, and athletic ability. His high-school profile also shows two-way juice, including 1,091 passing yards and 14 touchdowns as a junior, which hints at good ball skills and competitive toughness. If you want a developmental DB with multi-sport/dual-threat instincts and room to grow, he’s a name worth tracking.
