elite Mississippi State DB talent with NFL-caliber playmaking
In the 2014 season, Will Redmond flashed as a lockdown Mississippi State defensive back, recording 51 tackles and 3 interceptions while earning a reputation as a vocal leader and special-teams contributor[2]. His calling cards were closing speed, instincts, and a competitive edge that helped him punch above his size; the big caveat was durability, as his senior season was cut short by injury[2]. He was also viewed as an NFL Draft-caliber defender, selected in the third round in 2016[1][13].
