Experienced EKU DB with ball skills and run support
Malik Mays has the profile of a steady, physical defensive back who can hold up in coverage and isn’t shy about getting involved against the run. In his EKU career, he entered as a versatile corner/safety type with strong high-school production—three interceptions, 26 pass breakups, and a forced fumble—and coaches highlighted his ability to stay with receivers downfield while supporting the run. That combo makes him a useful fit for a defense that values reliability, toughness, and versatility more than flashy highlight reels.
