Packers to host SFA cornerback Charles Demmings on pre-draft visit

The Green Bay Packers will host Stephen F. Austin cornerback Charles Demmings on an official visit before the 2026 NFL draft, according to NFL draft analyst Tony Pauline . Demmings is also scheduled to visit the Indianapolis Colts, Miami Dolphins, Dallas Cowboys and Houston Texans.

Demmings, an All-Southland Conference selection and FCS All-American in 2025, competed at the Senior Bowl and the NFL Scouting Combine following his final season at Stephen F. Austin. At the combine, Demmings (6-1, 193) ran the 40-yard dash in 4.

41 seconds, hit 41" in the vertical leap and covered 11-0 in the broad jump. Combine production (nine interceptions, 35 pass breakups) and athleticism and you get a small-school riser in the draft process. With three weeks to go until the draft, Demmings ranks No.

162 on the consensus big board -- making him a likely Day 3 pick but also a possible Day 2 option if he's a true riser. The Packers have a clear need at cornerback and will likely invest at least one draft pick in the position later this month. Brennen Rupp of Packers Wire recently profiled Demmings in his "Unpacking Future Packers" series.
