Maurice Trowell brings elite speed and proven versatility to NC State’s defensive backfield
Trowell is a former NC State wide receiver who converted to cornerback in 2018, giving him a rare understanding of route concepts and receiver releases that can help him play the position with anticipation rather than just athleticism. He was one of the fastest players on the roster, with a reported 4.48 laser 40 and 4.00 pro-agility, and his background as a productive high-school and college receiver suggests strong ball skills and competitive instincts. For a team, he fits as a developmental, high-upside DB with speed, experience, and flexibility.
