veteran Oregon linebacker with steady depth-chart value
In the 2014 season, Mike Garrity was a redshirt senior linebacker for Oregon listed at 6-foot-1, 235 pounds, and he profiled more as a reliable depth piece than a headline-grabbing stat machine. Oregon’s roster and spring-depth coverage show him at SAM linebacker, where his value was tied to experience, physicality, and knowing the system—useful traits for a team that wants a tough, assignment-sound defender rather than a splashy playmaker. His résumé points to a durable, developmental veteran who could help a defense with toughness and preparation.
