KJ Bolden

Dean Kindig

5 solos, 1 asst in Bills-scouted game vs 'Bama. Starks' replacement immediately impacted Georgia's defense as a 2024 true freshman, All-SEC honors in 2025. Noted for his range, high football IQ, trigger. Covers so much ground, and an exceptional open field tackler. Sparks: "Despite an undersized frame, he's a true center‑fielder with excellent ball skills in both man and zone, consistently playing bigger than he measures. He diagnoses routes early, triggers with confidence, and has that rare ability to stay calm and track the ball like a wideout. Whether he's matching vertically, squeezing space from depth, or baiting throws from the post, Bolden's instincts and finishing ability make him one of the most complete playmakers in the country."

Tied with Mansoor Delane with Most forced incompletions, SEC CBs in 2025, but Ricks gave up 655 receiving yards this season (per PFF), the most in the SEC and seventh-most nationally. No Aggie player has allowed more receiving yards in a season since Charles Oliver (664) in 2018. Ricks surrendered 6/115/1 vs. USC, per PFF. Vogel: "Good man coverage ability. Attacks the catch point and the hands very well. Stays very well in phase. Finds the football well downfield.".
