About Stanford Updated Jun 14, 2026

Sam Houston DB Jalyn Stanford brings size, special-teams value, and upside

Jalyn Stanford is a **6-foot-ish, 185-pound defensive back** who arrived at Sam Houston after starting his college career at Houston, where he redshirted in 2023 and played four games for **13 total snaps, all on special teams**. His appeal is less about proven production and more about traits: a listed safety with recruiting pedigree, enough size to hold up in the run game, and the kind of developmental profile that can help a defense and coverage units if he keeps climbing. He looks like a **high-upside depth add** rather than an instant-impact starter.
