A youth product of Derby County, Cashin was during the 2018–19 season, a part of Derby's U18 Premier League title success.[2] Cashin signed his first professional contract with the club in the summer of 2020.[3] He made his professional debut with Derby County on 11 December 2021, coming on as a late substitute in a 1–0 EFL Championship win over Blackpool.[4] His first goal in senior football came on 30 April 2022, in a 2–0 win away to Blackpool.[5] He played a total amount of eighteen league matches during the season, as Derby were eventually relegated to League One.

Cashin went into the 2023–24 season once again as Derby's first choice central defender and in the summer transfer window was linked with a transfer to Premier League club Brighton & Hove Albion who had multiple bids rejected in July and August 2023, head coach Paul Warne stated these bids did not match Derby's valuation.[8] Brighton did match Derby's valuation at the end of the transfer window on 1 September 2023, however the transfer did not occur due to limited time scale to find a replacement or arrange a loan back deal for Cashin.[9] Cashin was not named in Derby's starting lineup the following day against Bolton Wanderers due to only arriving at the team hotel 2am the night before the game.[9]
