Christian Covington brings NFL-tested interior power to Rice's defensive line
Christian Covington is a seasoned, high-motor defensive tackle whose Rice profile is defined by strength, leverage, and disruption in the interior; in his Rice years, he logged 59 tackles and 4.0 sacks in 2013 and 20 tackles with 2.5 sacks in 2014 before becoming a 2015 NFL Draft pick, which tells you he already showed pro-level traits early. That track record makes him a fit for teams needing a stout, physical DT who can anchor against the run and collapse pockets without needing the spotlight.
