Early years[edit]

Warren played high school football at Marbury High School in Deatsville, Alabama. He was a two-time all-metro selection and was an all-county selection as a senior. He was a four-year letterman, three-year starter and helped the Bulldogs advance to the state playoffs.

Professional career[edit]

Warren was rated the 12th best free safety in the 2014 NFL Draft by NFLDraftScout.com.[4] Nolan Nawrocki of NFL.com predicted that Warren would go undrafted and be a priority free agent. Nawrocki stated that Warren was "At his best in deep zone coverage, but deficient strength, physicality and instincts will turn some teams off, and he does not project as a core special-teams contributor."[5]
