JoJo Maxey-Johnson is a long, versatile defensive back with playmaking upside
In the 2025 season, JoJo Maxey-Johnson showed the kind of back-end versatility coaches love: Eastern Washington lists him as a defensive back/safety/CB type at 6'2", and the Eagles’ own notes say he played in 4 games with 2 tackles and 1 interception, while a spring 2026 scrimmage report credited him with 3 pass breakups — a real hint at ball skills and competitive range. He was a multi-sport high-school athlete and was described by EWU as someone whose “best football years are ahead of him,” which fits a developmental, high-ceiling profile rather than a finished product.
