2026 Projections
Signed a four-year contract with the Ravens in May of 2026.
Heads to Baltimore
The Ravens selected Rivers in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 162nd overall.
ANALYSIS
Rivers was a steady starter for Duke from 2023 to 2025, and he was named to the All-ACC Second-Team in his senior year after posting 59 total tackles, one forced fumble and 10 pass defenses (two interceptions) across 13 games. He primarily played on the outside but also saw some work at the nickel corner, the latter of which could be his position as he enters the NFL. Rivers' 5-foot-9 frame is a little underwhelming and might limit his effectiveness as a run stopper, but his speed and fluidity made him difficult for opposing receivers to shake off. Rivers will compete with the likes of Marlon Humphrey, T.J. Tampa and Chidobe Awuzie for a consistent role and snaps in the Ravens secondary.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Among Brugler's top 100 prospects
Rivers is the 91st-ranked prospect in the comprehensive 2026 NFL Draft guide put together by Dane Brugler of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
The main knock on Rivers is his small stature, as the cornerback out of Duke is listed at just 5-foot-9 and 185 pounds. That lack of size didn't stop him from lining up primarily outside while in college, though Rivers demonstrated the ability to shift to nickel when needed. He positions his body well to defend passes and is a willing contributor in run support despite his diminutive frame.
