(Photo by Alika Jenner/Getty Images) | Getty Images The San Francisco 49ers selected cornerback Ephesians Prysock from the University of Washington. He is a long cornerback at 6’3 3/8″. Prysock is a 4-year senior with three years of playing experience. He transferred from the University of Arizona. In the previous three seasons, Prysock has been targeted at least 49 times and allowed a completion percentage no higher than 46 percent. As you’d imagine, Prysock’s in the mold of the prototypical press cornerback the Seahawks went after over the last decade. He ran a 4.45 50 and had a vertical jump of 39″. An athletic similarity for Prysock is none other than Ahkello Witherspoon. Prysock had 12 pass breakups last season. He allowed three touchdowns, but also dropped three interceptions, per Sports Info Solutions. So, he should’ve had four interceptions. In 2024, Prysock had 10 pass breakups. He’ll compete for a roster spot with Jack Jones, Darrell Luter Jr., Eli Apple, and Nate Hobbs. This is our first example of the type of cornerback Raheem Morris is interested in. And this prototype is different than those on the roster. Prysock played on four separate special teams units in 2024 and 2025. He was primarily a wide cornerback during his tenure at Washington.
