Army's Gritty Nickelback Poised for Senior Breakout
Caden Brungard, Army West Point's 6-0, 210-pound senior nickelback from Scranton, PA, embodies the Black Knights' tough, physical defense with a high school pedigree of 94 career tackles and 4 INTs, earning LFC DEV 2 All-Star honors as an athlete. Now rated 66 OVR in EA Sports College Football 26 as a junior Mike Backer transitioning to DB, his field vision, relentless intensity, and USMAPS grind make him a differentiator in Army's option-stopping scheme—ideal for teams seeking blue-collar DBs who hit hard and chase plays sideline-to-sideline.
