Anthony Nixon, Maryland Terrapins' defensive back, boasts career stats of 156 solo tackles, 5 interceptions, and 1 forced fumble, highlighted by an explosive 2015 senior season with 82 tackles and a team-leading tie in picks while starting all 12 games. A versatile 6-1 athlete from Pittsburgh, his high school pedigree as a 3-star WR commit (247Sports rank #142 nationally) translates to physicality and coverage savvy, making him a tone-setter in the secondary.
