Yale DB with Ivy League pedigree and coach-level football IQ
Coombs is a Yale defensive back whose biggest edge is proven football IQ: he was part of Yale’s 2006 Ivy League title team and earned the program’s Special Teams Player of the Year award as a senior, suggesting a reliable, detail-driven defender with competitive toughness. His background as both a defensive back and running back in high school points to functional versatility and a feel for the game that coaches tend to trust. Because the available sources are about his playing career rather than current Yale stats, the strongest case for him is his experience, discipline, and role-player upside rather than flashy production.
