Physical, high-motor Arkansas State LB with upside
Jourdyn Burruss arrived at Arkansas State as a 6-foot, 200-pound linebacker from Cookeville, Tennessee, where he was a two-time all-region pick, team captain, and a wrestler who helped drive a strong high school defense. He stood out for toughness and versatility, also contributing as a running back, and was noted for finishing eighth in tackles for loss in Cookeville history. He entered the transfer portal in December 2024, so his fit depends on whether a staff wants a developmental, physical linebacker with room to grow rather than a polished, proven production machine.
