Donovan Hoskins is a physical, veteran Virginia State DB with playmaking juice
In the 2024 season, Donovan Hoskins logged 17 tackles, 1.0 tackle for loss and 1 forced fumble in 10 games, and he already flashed disruptive traits with 3 tackles, a forced fumble and a fumble recovery in Virginia State’s 2025 win over Winston-Salem. At 6-foot-3 and 204 pounds, he brings rare size for a defensive back, plus a ROVER role that hints at versatility and downhill physicality. The fit question is simple: if a team wants a long, sturdy defender who can close space and create turnovers, Hoskins is worth a hard look.
