Former Indiana State LB Jayden Everett stood out as a captain, MVP, and steady defender
Jayden Everett is best known for being a high-impact, high-trust linebacker at Indiana State: he was a defensive captain and co-team MVP as a senior, and in his first season with the Sycamores he played all 11 games with 61 total tackles, including 29 solo stops. He reads like a culture fit for a program that values leadership, reliability, and production over flash—exactly the kind of player who raises the floor of a defense and helps stabilize the locker room.
