In many ways, today s article is going to mirror the feature on Hamsah Nasrildeen. Both were college safeties with overhang linebacker skill sets. Both players are excellent tacklers, both hit hard and play fast, both are better with the play in front of them, and both will be looking to offer scheme versatility to Robert Saleh and Jeff Ulbrich.
