Elijah Palmer brings playmaking range and ball skills to Hawaii’s secondary
Palmer has been a steady, high-impact defensive back for Hawaii, combining tackling production with real takeaway juice: across his Hawaii career, he has posted 110 tackles and 5 interceptions, including a 2025 season with 41 tackles, 2 picks, 7 passes defended and a pick-six. His profile stands out for quickness, acceleration and agility, which fits a coverage-heavy DB role, and he has shown enough versatility to finish plays near the ball. If your team wants an instinctive, aggressive defender who can turn coverage reps into turnovers, Palmer is a legitimate fit.
