Columbia DB Ethan Fullerton: Reliable depth piece with active, assignment-sound play
In the 2025 season, Ethan Fullerton was a steady Columbia defensive back who played in nine games, finished with seven tackles, and broke up two passes, including one each against Georgetown and Brown.[2][1] His value is less about gaudy ball-production and more about trust: he has the size of a lean, versatile DB, a special-teams-friendly frame, and a background that includes two-time All-Mission League honors in high school.[2][7] He looks like a good fit for a program that wants disciplined, low-drama defensive depth rather than a high-risk, high-upside gamble.[2]
