East Carolina cornerback Shavon Revel Jr., a projected first-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, tore his left ACL in practice this week and will be sidelined the rest of the season, ESPN reported Friday.
He made a highlight-reel play in the Pirates’ 21-19 loss to Appalachian State on Saturday with an interception and a 50-yard return for a touchdown in the first quarter.
In 24 games over two-plus seasons with East Carolina, Revel has 71 tackles, one sack, 16 pass break-ups, three interceptions and a fumble recovery.
Committed to the Pirates, he turned down opportunities to transfer to schools rich with NIL money in the offseason.
Before the injury, draft analysts put Revel on track to become East Carolina’s first-ever top-20 pick and the first player from the school taken in the first round since running back Chris Johnson was selected by the Tennessee Titans with the No. 24 overall pick in 2008.
