Nicholas Benton brings versatile, ball-hawking DB energy to Morehouse
In the 2025 season, Nicholas Benton flashed real playmaking upside for Morehouse, including an interception against Johnson C. Smith and 7 tackles plus a tackle for loss against Howard[9][8]. He’s listed as a 5-foot-10, 195-pound junior/defensive back who can line up at corner, nickel, safety, and even help on special teams, which makes him the kind of chess-piece defender coaches love[1][2]. The big selling point: versatility, physicality, and an instinct for showing up around the ball—very “plug him in and let him cook” energy.
