physical, high-IQ Iowa DB with proven Big Ten production
Shaun Prater was a disruptive, four-year starter at Iowa whose game was built on physicality, competitiveness, and playmaking — in 2011 he started all 13 games and posted 33 solo tackles, 4 forced fumbles, 3 pass breakups, and an interception. He earned First-Team All-Big Ten honors in both 2010 and 2011, which signals a consistently high-impact defender against top competition. For a team, he fits best as a tough, aggressive defensive back who brings urgency, ball disruption, and starter-level reliability.
