compact, physical New Haven DB with early-career upside
Jahad Thompson is a sophomore defensive back for New Haven who already has game action on the books in the 2025 season, recording 2 total tackles, and his profile suggests a sturdy 5'9", 175-pound defender with room to grow into a larger role[3][5]. He was a decorated high school player at Carteret High, earning All-State, All-County and All-Division honors and serving as a captain, which points to competitiveness and leadership beyond the box score[6]. If you need a young, active DB with proven football pedigree and special-teams or depth value, he looks like a sensible developmental fit[1][6].
