College Career
A Defensive back from Jackson State University is great to have, Learned from one of the best corners of all time, Coach Prime taught him well. Bolden was great on special teams, an unpolished diamond. During Isaiah Bolden's time at JSU, he was solid at tackling and excellent on the Special teams unit. 55 total tackles and 2 TFL (Tackles for loss), 7 pass breakups. Solid numbers from the DB/KR. The kickoff stats caught my attention at first glance. The New England Patriots are getting a stud; On 26 kick return attempts, The 6’2 DB/KR would record 851 yards with 2 touchdowns as well as an OUTSTANDING 36.9 yards per return. Phenomenal numbers from Isaiah Bolden.
