Kam Sallis gives Jackson State a rangy, playmaking tone-setter at DB
In the 2025 season, Kam Sallis was one of Jackson State’s defensive anchors, starting all 11 games and finishing with 53 tackles, 2 interceptions, and 2 forced fumbles. He’s not just a stat-line guy: the buzz around him is about size, physicality, and instincts in coverage, plus the kind of edge coaches love from a true tone-setter in the secondary. He was named first-team All-SWAC preseason Defensive Player of the Year in 2026, which says the national view matches the production. If your team wants a tough, versatile DB who can disrupt games, he fits.
