Tall, Athletic HBCU DB Prospect Poised for Breakout
Del Cowsette II, a 6'1", 179-pound sophomore defensive back for the Howard Bison out of Atholton HS in Laurel, MD, brings elite length and speed to the secondary, making him a matchup nightmare against bigger receivers[1][2][8]. With no stats yet in the young 2026 season as Howard sits at 3-2, his active roster status signals untapped potential from a freshman campaign that flew under the radar[1][7]. Why care? This wiry, high-motor kid from Maryland has the tools to develop into a ballhawk—perfect fit for teams needing versatile corners with room to bulk up and shine in zone schemes[2][9].
