B.J. Hendrix Jr. brings ball-hawking upside to Wyoming's secondary
In the 2025 season, B.J. Hendrix Jr. flashed as a true playmaker for Wyoming, logging 43 tackles and ranking No. 8 nationally in pass defense with 20 passes defended, including six interceptions and 14 pass breakups. He looks like the kind of safety who changes game plans: active, instinctive, and sticky in coverage, with real takeaway juice. At 5-foot-11 and 184 pounds, he fits best for a team that values range, anticipation, and willingness to attack the ball rather than just rack up clean-up tackles. In short: if you want disruption, he’s worth the hype.
