CLEMSON — A former Clemson defensive back is signing as an undrafted free agent with an NFL team.

The Clemson Insider has learned that Jeadyn Lukus is expected to sign an undrafted free agent deal with the Tennessee Titans. Lukus agreed to terms shortly after the NFL Draft ended on Saturday night.

Jeadyn Lukus, a former cornerback for the Tigers, recorded an 11-foot, seven-inch broad jump at Clemson’s Pro Day, smashing numbers set at the NFL Combine two weeks earlier. After an up-and-down collegiate career, his  jump, and total Pro Day performance, made a statement.

“I think it went good,” Lukus said post-Pro Day. “I’ve been training for two months, trying to get the job done and I just feel like I put my abilities on display the best I could.”

Along with the broad jump, Lukus recorded a 1.46-second 10-yard-dash time, and a 6.95-second three-cone drill. Both splits would also have ranked first among all defensive backs at the NFL Combine in Indianapolis, to which the veteran did not receive an invite. Additionally, his 4.41 40-yard-dash time would have slotted in at fourth among his position group.

The defensive back’s athleticism was a large reason why he was rated a five-star prospect and the No. 1 player in South Carolina coming out of high school, according to 247Sports. Across three limited seasons due to the Pandemic, Lukus notched 97 tackles in just 23 games for Mauldin High School, deflecting 17 passes and grabbing four interceptions en route to several deep postseason finishes.

While Lukus’ athleticism was never in question in his Clemson career, he still never quite found consistent success as a member of the Tigers’ secondary. The former Top-30 recruit showed early promise, catching an interception in the 2022 ACC Championship win over North Carolina, and notching three pass breakups in 2023. By the start of the 2024 season, he became a regular starter.

However, after early struggles, Lukus lost his starting job by the end of the season, and only made one start in 2025, after dealing with nagging injuries and missing most of fall camp. After playing a combined 721 snaps his sophomore and junior seasons, he only notched 197 in 2025.
