Big-bodied, speed-first Miami CB with high-upside press traits
Chris Ewald Jr. enters Miami as a **6'1"** redshirt freshman corner with eye-catching athletic tools — **91 speed**, **93 acceleration**, and **80 press** in EA Sports College Football 26 — that match his reputation as a disruptive cover man. His high school résumé at Chaminade-Madonna showed production, ball skills, and physicality, including **20 pass breakups** and **2 interceptions** as a junior and a state-title senior season, which suggests a defender who can challenge receivers at the line and make plays on the ball. The fit: he looks like a developmental outside DB with starter traits if his technique keeps catching up to his explosiveness.[2][5]
