Despite only playing two years of football at the collegiate level, Arnold was a leader on the Alabama defense. He ended his second season with the highest number of interceptions and pass deflections on the team, even with fellow cornerback prospect Kool-Aid McKinstry on the roster.
Arnold became one of the top cornerback recruits in this year’s draft class due to the incredible leap in production from his first and second year statistics. He improved from his first season by obtaining four more interceptions and four more pass deflections in 2023, showcasing his incredible coverage and ball tracking ability. Arnold ended up being taken as the second cornerback in the first round tonight.
