San Jose State’s Jaylen Thomas: young DB with pro-style size and developing upside
Jaylen Thomas is a **freshman** defensive back for San Jose State, listed at **6'0"** with an EA SPORTS College Football 26 rating of **65**, which suggests a prospect with room to grow rather than a finished product.[1][3] The key appeal is his developmental upside: he has the frame and position fit teams want in a modern DB, and early-career players like this can become valuable if they show quick processing, tackling reliability, and play strength in coverage.[3] For a team evaluating fit, he profiles as a **projectable young defender** worth monitoring for growth, consistency, and special-teams value.[1][3]
