Kameron Reddic Commits to WVU Football, Brings ‘Clutch Gene’ to Defensive Backfield

The former Stephen F. Austin safety aims to compete for playing time in 2026

Kameron Reddic, a 6-0 safety weighing 192 pounds, has officially joined the West Virginia University football program for the 2026 season after completing two years at Stephen F. Austin State University.

During his tenure with the Lumberjacks, Reddic started 13 of 14 games in 2025, amassing 42 tackles, four pass breakups, two tackles for loss and an interception that came in the FCS Quarterfinals against Montana State, the eventual league champion. His performance earned a three-star transfer rating from 247Sports, underscoring the impact he made at the FCS level.

A Transfer Defined by Clutch Performances

At WVU, Reddic will be among ten safeties vying for a spot in the defensive backfield. Coaches have indicated that his versatility could see him line up as a starter or a key reserve, depending on how the depth chart shapes up during preseason drills.

What sets Reddic apart is his reputation for delivering in critical moments. Analysts describe him as possessing a 'clutch gene,' noting that his most memorable plays have often arrived when the game's tempo intensified.

The transition from the FCS to the Big 12 presents a new set of challenges, but Reddic's experience in high-stakes matchups suggests he is prepared to meet them. If he can translate his collegiate production to the Power Five stage, he may become a pivotal piece of WVU's defensive strategy in the coming years.
