Albany State’s Malachi Grier brings length, senior savvy, and press-CB upside
In the 2026 season, Malachi Grier is a 6-foot-2 senior cornerback for Albany State who has already shown he can contribute in the run game, with 2 tackles in the opener against Florida A&M[1][2]. His biggest selling point is NFL-style size and rangy length for the position, which gives him real fit value in press coverage and on contested throws[1][3]. He also brings an experienced, transferable profile after stops at Winston-Salem State and Louisburg College, and his transfer-portal note suggests he still has eligibility and upside to develop[3][4].
