Top returning playmaker with ball-hawking instincts for San Diego
Patrick O'Neill entered the season as San Diego's top returning tackler, ranking fourth on the team with 65 tackles, while also adding 4 interceptions and 4 pass breakups in the prior season[4]. That profile points to a defender who combines steady production with real playmaking range in the secondary, and his academic recognition suggests the discipline and preparation coaches value[1]. If you want a smart, reliable defensive back who can tackle, read routes, and flip momentum with turnovers, he is the kind of fit teams can trust[4][1].
