Jeff Gladney was a two-time NFL cornerback. He attended TCU and was selected first overall in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Minnesota Vikings.
Gladney was killed in an automobile accident just before the start of the 2022 NFL season.
Gladney was a three-star recruit who signed with Texas Christian University (TCU) to play college football on February 5, 2015, after originally committing to the institution on June 6, 2014.
Gladney attended New Boston High School in New Boston, Texas, and was a three-star recruit. North Texas, Northern Illinois, Rice, Texas State, Tulsa, and UTSA all offered Gladney scholarships, but he chose TCU.
Gladney was a four-year starter at Texas Christian University after redshirting his first year due to a torn anterior cruciate ligament suffered during his final year in high school.
Gladney earned a name for himself as a cover cornerback during his junior season, garnering first team all-Big 12 Conference honors from Pro Football Focus and second-team honors from the coaches.
He tore his meniscus before his senior season, but he played through it and waited until the end of the season for surgery.
He had five interceptions throughout his TCU career and was picked to the 2020 Senior Bowl roster after receiving first-team all-Big 12 honors from the Associated Press during his senior season.
