Cal Poly CB Christian Middleton: battle-tested, versatile, and still pushing for a starting role
Christian Middleton, a 5-11, 175-pound redshirt sophomore from Camarillo, has shown real value for Cal Poly with 29 career tackles and a pass breakup while also missing part of a season to injury, which adds some durability context to his profile. In 2023, Cal Poly expected him to compete for the starting boundary corner job, and that tracks with a player whose calling card is competitiveness, multi-sport athleticism, and enough toughness to stay in the mix on defense. He looks like a fit for a program that wants a physical, smart corner with upside rather than a finished product.
