Bradley Pruitt brings veteran versatility to NIU’s secondary
Bradley Pruitt is a dependable Northern Illinois defensive back who has already finished his career with 177 tackles, 12 tackles for loss, and 3 interceptions, showing the kind of toughness and positional flexibility teams value in the secondary.[4][5] Listed as both a safety and cornerback, his biggest differentiator is his ability to play multiple spots, which gives a staff lineup insurance and suggests a player trusted to handle assignments rather than just rack up splash plays.[4][3] That profile makes him a strong fit for teams that want a physical, assignment-sound DB with proven production and versatility.
