Earlier this offseason, Christian was unfortunately on the wrong side of a free agent deal that fell through with the New York Jets. He, along with cornerback Darqueze Dennard, are both still free agents after initially agreeing to a free agent contract.
Over the last four seasons, Christian recorded 83 total stops to go along with three pass breakups.
The 5’11, 207-pound defender was selected in the fifth round of the 2016 NFL draft out of Midwestern State University. Christian was a Division II All-American and a three-time First Team All-Conference selection.
