The Indianapolis Colts addressed their biggest need early on Day 2 of the 2023 NFL draft by selecting Kansas State cornerback Julius Brents with the No. 44 overall pick.
A near-perfect fit for Gus Bradley’s defense, Brents has exceptional length, physicality and athleticism to thrive in zone coverage. He’s not afraid to lay the wood while he has impressive short-area quickness for a player who is 6-foot-3 and 198 pounds.
Despite receovering from offseason wrist surgery, Brents should compete for a starting role on the boundary right away.
Enjoy some highlights of the Day 2 pick from his time at Kansas State:
