local Albany CB with upside, speed, and special-teams juice
Jaylen Tate enters Albany State as a freshman cornerback from Albany, Georgia, and the early profile points to a developmental defender with real athletic pop: Hudl lists him at 6'1", 180 pounds with a 4.44 forty and 10.9 100-meter speed. His recruiting buzz centered on ball production and disruption, with self-reported prep totals of 7 PBUs, 14 tackles, 2 TFLs, and 1 forced fumble, which suggests a feisty, attack-minded style. He looks like a good fit for a program that values length, speed, and upside at CB, especially if he keeps growing into the physical demands of the college game.
