Notes: From Bassfield, MS. Full name is Quinn Jamal Peters. Saw action in 12 games with 2 starts as a true freshman at safety, recording 25 tackles, 1.5 TFL 1 sack and 2 PBU in 2015. Played in 12 games with 2 starts at cornerback, making 18 tackles, 1 TFL, 2 INT, 4 PBU and 2 FF in 2016. Appeared in all 12 games with 3 starts at cornerback with 23 tackles, 1 INT (returned 90 yards for touchdown), 3 PBU and 1 FR in 2017. Missed the team’s bowl game due to a death in the family.

Positives: Tall, lengthy and athletic. Runs well for size. Can match up physically with bigger receivers. Can turn and run with receivers and shadow them with his size and length. Capable tackler. Supports against the run.

Negatives: Lacks elite quickness and change of direction, and struggles with quicker receivers who can create separation on him. Needs technique refinement.

Summary: Looks the part physically but doesn’t truly stand out a lot on game day. Has upside, however, with patience and good coaching.
