Scouting Notes
FCS transfer (Merrimack) who flashed as a true freshman (2.5 sacks in 2024) and earned three spot starts at EDGE/DL for BC in 2025, but production was modest (14 tackles, 1 sack) and snaps diminished as the season wore on. Developmental Power-4 rotational piece with no NFL draft buzz; FCS origin and thin sample keep him in the red tail.
