Packers hosting MTSU DB Juwon Gaston on pre-draft visit

The Green Bay Packers are hosting Middle Tennessee State defensive back Juwon Gaston on a pre-draft visit, per Easton Butler . Gaston, a Houston transfer, played 457 snaps as a rotational starter for Middle Tennessee State in 2025. He produced a team-high three interceptions, plus two forced fumbles, 2.

5 tackles for loss and four pass breakups. Per PFF, Gaston allowed 18 catches and three touchdown passes while giving up a passer rating of 88. 4 against his coverage.

He was the Conference USA Defensive Player of the Week after picking off two passes against Nevada in September. Gaston played deep safety, in the slot and in the box during the 2025 season. Dane Brugler of The Athletic ranked Gaston as the No.

200 overall safety in the draft class. He is not ranked on the consensus big board and is likely to become an undrafted free agent. Poor pre-draft testing is part of the reason why.
