Cobbs spent the 2022 season at Tyler Junior College under head coach Tanner Jacobson.

He chose a scholarship offer from K-State over others from Louisiana-Monroe, Louisiana Tech, Old Dominion and Texas State.

He was a late spring addition to (and 31st member of!) the 2022 recruiting class and projects as a possible member of the two-deep if he adapts as quickly as new teammates (and former Apache secondary members) Kobe Savage and Justice Clemons.

Cobbs’ older brother, Stefan Cobbs Jr., is a current wide receiver at Boise State University.
