Melvin played in 5 games for the Badgers in 2022, ending with 5 tackles and 2 passes defended. The Spartans will surely welcome an additional piece to their secondary which finished 87th in passing defense in 2022.
Melvin was a 3-star CB prospect out of Fort Lauderdale, FL in the class of 2019. Melvin chose the Badgers over his hometown Miami Hurricanes.
Melvin is the 2nd former Badger to join the Spartans this week, along with Jaylan Franklin. Jalen Berger also transferred to the Spartans from the Badgers after the 2021 season. There seems to be a real pipeline connecting the schools.
