Myles Redding is Mercer’s turnover-hunting senior safety with NFL eyes
In the 2024 season, Myles Redding was one of the FCS’s best ballhawks, finishing with 70 tackles, a Mercer-record 9 interceptions, 6 pass breakups, and 2 quarterback hurries while earning Associated Press All-America honors. His calling card is instincts: he reads routes fast, closes downhill with confidence, and consistently flips games with splash plays rather than just clean-up tackles. That’s the kind of safety a coach can trust in a pressure package or center-field role, especially if your defense values discipline, production, and a proven playmaker with pro-level ball skills.
