Veteran Montana safety with brains, grit, and real ball-hawking upside
Montana safety TraJon Cotton stands out as more than a stat sheet guy: in the 2023 season, he was a semifinalist for the Academic Heisman, and across his career he’s posted 81 tackles, a fumble recovery, four pass breakups, and his first interception. The tape-and-academics combo suggests a disciplined, high-IQ defensive back with steady production, good instincts, and dependable effort. He looks like a fit for teams valuing smart, assignment-sound secondary play and strong character as much as splash plays.
