Davison Igbinosun: Green Bay's Potential Third-Round Cornerback

0:00It's April 4th, from Breaking News to Sunday Matchups. This is NFL News Today, powered by AI. The Green Bay Packers are eyeing more cornerback help in the 2026 NFL draft, even after grabbing Benjamin St. Just. Guys like Casey and Nixon and Carrington Valentine are heading into key contract years, so this spot needs fresh talent now and down the road. One name popping up for a third-round pick is Ohio State's Davidson Igbino Sun, ranked 24th on the unpacking future Packers countdown. Igbino Sun hails from New Jersey and kicked off college at Ole Miss with five past deflections in his only year there back in 2022. He transferred to Ohio State the next season, piling up 59 tackles, one and a half tackles for loss, and five more deflections. By 2024 he had 45 tackles, two picks, and nine deflections, then capped it with 53 tackles, two interceptions, and eight deflections in his final year. Folks around the program rave about how he locked down receivers and brought some edge

He tackled well, and run support too, keeping Miss Tackles average for heavy snaps. At six foot two, with nearly 33 inch arms, Igbino Sun uses that length like a weapon, and he cleaned up penalty issues big time, dropping from. 16 in 2024 to just five last season. Pro football focus notes he allowed zero touchdowns. Packers GM Brian Guterkunst hasn't spent a top 100 pick on a corner since Eric Stokes in 2021, but that could flip soon. If Green Bay snags him, Igbino Sun could push for starts as a rookie and lock down a spot by year two, bolstering that secondary for the long haul.
