Keyon Mills brings versatility and a proven playmaking résumé to Sacramento State’s secondary
In the 2026 season, Keyon Mills is a sophomore safety at Sacramento State listed at 5-foot-11 and 185 pounds, and his transfer background suggests a defender who can handle real responsibility rather than just fill a jersey[1][2]. Before arriving in Sacramento, he logged 27 tackles, 4 pass breakups, and an interception in a season at Pacific, with a six-tackle peak and production across multiple games[1]. What makes him intriguing is the dual-threat football background from John Muir HS — he played quarterback and safety — which often shows up as better field vision, confidence, and instincts in coverage[1].
