Early years

Lucas Knight was born in Mexico City to Daniel Knight and Gabriela Mendez. Since his father was a renowned goalkeeper for the Liga MX Pumas UNAM team, Lucas started to play soccer since he was 7 years old. During his first two years at at high school, he continued to develop as a goalkeeper for UNAM Reserves and Academy where he showed great athleticism and reflexes.

During the summer before entering his final year, Knight expressed his desire to pursue a career in football and decided to play for his high school team as a wide receiver where he had a promising season (4 games, 238 yds, 3 tds)

College career

Following several interviews with scouts, Knight decided to accept an invitation from Texas A&M University to play as a wide receiver. In his freshman year, Knight struggled to adapt to his role and only play as a backup for 3 out of 13 games where he had a much significant contribution as kick/punt returner.

Before the start of his sophomore year, the defensive coach suggested Knight to switch into a defensive back where he could take advantage of his vision and ball skills. For the season, Knight earned the starting role as an outside corner and 19 tackles, 5 passes defended and 1 interception in 6 games.

During his junior and senior years, Knight became a starter for 26 out of 28 games played. He spent most of the time as an outside corner but filled in as a free safety and in the slot when needed. The team went into the bowl game two consecutive seasons but lost both times. His senior year, Knight posted a season with 64 tackles, 8 for loss, 6 interceptions and 17 pass breakups in which he was selected first-team All-SEC and was a finalist for the Thorpe Award.
