DJ Cerisier is Duquesne’s ball-hawking, every-down veteran in the secondary
In the 2025 season, Cerisier delivered a breakout-for-the-books season for Duquesne, leading the Dukes with 9 passes defended, adding 8 pass breakups, 1 interception, and a career-high 24 tackles; he enters 2026 as a two-time Second Team All-NEC selection and team captain with a 23-game starting streak. He stands out for durability, instincts, and take-away production—plus a rare knack for showing up in big moments, including a historic 100-yard interception return for a two-point conversion. If you want a reliable, physical DB who can stabilize a secondary, he’s a strong fit.
