Depth Safety with Size, Work Ethic, and Development Upside at Idaho State
Makeo Sneddon is a 6'0", 200-pound safety for Idaho State who joined the Bengals in 2024 and appeared in one game that season, with his 2025 roster spot suggesting he’s still in the development pipeline rather than a finished-product starter.[1][2] His appeal is the combination of frame and versatility in the secondary, but there isn’t enough public production yet to sell him as a stat-driven impact player, so the key question is whether his physical tools and trajectory translate into reliable special-teams or rotational value.[1][2]
