Elijah Hunter Jr. brings size, versatility, and a high-upside cover profile to Middle Tennessee
In the 2025 season, Elijah Hunter Jr. entered Middle Tennessee as a 6-foot, 210-pound freshman cornerback with a strong multi-sport resume, three-star recruiting recognition from On3, and a high school track record of 2,600 all-purpose yards, 36 touchdowns, and six interceptions. His differentiators are his physical frame, two-way athletic background, and playmaking instincts — he looks built for contact, competitive reps, and special teams value. The catch: public stat logs show little verified college production so far, so he’s more of a projection bet than a finished product.
