Eastern Washington's Alvin Tolliver: Unsung DB with Pro Pedigree and Ball-Hawking Instincts
Alvin Tolliver, a hard-nosed defensive back for the Eastern Washington Eagles, stands out with his family legacy—cousin T.T. Toliver's 2x ArenaBowl titles (XVII, XXXI) and 2008 First-Team All-Arena nod fuel his intensity; in the 2025 season, Tolliver logged 4 INTs and 52 tackles while starting all 12 games, showcasing elite ball skills and physicality against Big Sky receivers. His high-motor play and versatility in coverage make him a coach's dream—perfect fit for teams needing a gritty, reliable DB ready to contribute Day 1 without injury concerns.
