Enters his final collegiate season among the highest-rated returning interior defensive linemen in the country … his 84.8 overall grade as a junior ranks third at his position group, trailing only Colorado’s EzraChristensen (previously at New Mexico State) and Auburn’s Cody Sigler (previously at Arkansas State) … will switch to jersey No. 10 for his final season as a Red Raider. ...@IC_Draft: "impressed me a ton on film. All-American in '25. 4.5 sacks, 9 TFLs, 84.3 PFN DT Impact grade.....Average size, but elite explosive capacity, great size-adjusted power, relentless motor. Love his fit in penetrating, one-gapping schemes."
