Zahquan Frazier (born October 5, 2000) is an American football cornerback. He played college football for the Southern Illinois Salukis, Coffeyville Red Ravens and UTSA Roadrunners.
Early life
[edit]Frazier was born on October 5, 2000, in Cedartown, Georgia.[1] He attended Cedartown High School where he competed in football, basketball and track and field.[1] He was an all-region selection as a junior, then an honorable mention all-area and first-team all-region selection as a senior in 2019.[2] He committed to play college football for the Southern Illinois Salukis, the lone team to give him an offer.[3]
College career
[edit]Frazier appeared in four games for Southern Illinois in 2019, then transferred to Coffeyville Community College for the 2020 season.[4] With the Coffeyville Red Ravens in 2020, he totaled nine tackles and three interceptions while being named second-team all-conference.[1] He then made 26 tackles and placed 10th in the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) with 11 pass breakups in 2021, being named first-team all-conference and a first-team junior college All-American.[1]
Frazier was a highly-regarded junior college recruit and initially committed to the Kentucky Wildcats before flipping to the UTSA Roadrunners, becoming UTSA's highest-ranked recruit in program history.[5] However, he saw limited action in the 2022 season due to issues in learning the team's playbook.[6] He then faced academic issues in 2023 that led to him being inactive until the ninth game, serving as the scout team wide receiver.[5] He returned for a final year in 2024 and had a breakout season, setting the school record and placing second nationally with six interceptions.[7] He was named first-team All-American Athletic Conference (AAC) and third-team All-American by Phil Steele, as well as first-team All-Texas by Dave Campbell's Texas Football.[1] He was invited to the 2025 East–West Shrine Bowl and to the NFL Scouting Combine, being the sixth player in UTSA history to be invited to the latter.[7]
