UT Martin’s steady, seasoned DB with real ball skills
In the 2016 season, Sheldon Dawson stood out as a physically reliable defensive back for UT Martin, finishing his Skyhawk career with 42 total tackles, six pass breakups and two interceptions, including a 41-tackle senior-year peak and picks against Hawai’i and Eastern Illinois. What makes him interesting isn’t just the box score: he arrived with big-program experience from Georgia, earned Georgia Newcomer of the Year honors as a freshman, and brought a calm, veteran edge to the secondary. If you want a DB who blends proven production, toughness and experience, he’s the kind of fit that quietly upgrades a defense.
