Cody Morris brings size and fresh legs to Southern’s secondary
Cody Morris is a 6-foot, 175-pound redshirt freshman safety for Southern University, listed on the 2026 roster after signing as a 2025 defensive back from Edna Karr in New Orleans.[5][12] His appeal is projection: a young, in-state defender with Power-Five-style frame for the SWAC and a chance to carve out snaps on a defense that’s still sorting its back-end depth.[5][9] The catch? There’s no public stat line yet, so he’s more “watch this space” than proven production — but the Jaguars clearly see enough upside to keep him in the mix.[2][5]
