DaRon Bland is a cornerback who plays in the NFL for the Dallas Cowboys. A relatively unknown draft prospect, Bland was first discovered by the Cowboys late in the 2022 Draft process which meant that they held an upper hand by the time the draft took place.

Bland is from Modesto, California where he went to Central Catholic High School playing on the defensive side of the school’s football team. As a senior, he was named the Defensive Player of the Year in the Valley Oak League. He continued playing football in college where he joined Sacramento State for the first three years before transferring to Fresno State prior to entering the 2022 NFL Draft.

Bland was drafted in 2022 by the Dallas Cowboys with the 167th pick in the 5th round. He started 8 of the 17 games he played in his rookie season, having decent success with 5 interceptions. However, the 2023 NFL season was an excellent one for him as he set the NFL record with the most pick-six6s in a season as he finished with five. Being a fifth-round pick, Bland is currently on a cheaper contract in the league but the Cowboys are reaping the benefits of his high production rate.
