The headliner of a rebuilt roster and the most decorated producer on it — first-team All-MAC at Toledo in 2025 (94 tackles, 14.5 TFL, 4.5 sacks) before following HC Jason Candle to Storrs. Benchmarked to a G5/Independent draft-outcome projection: an excellent college linebacker and fringe pro, held just under Draft Caliber because no 2027 board carries him yet and he has one year of eligibility.

Projected 2026 starter (LB1) — real opportunity to climb; close to ceiling (+0.5) · Independent draft-temper · LB lower-value.
