VMI’s Eric Weaver brings veteran, disruptive DL presence
Eric Weaver’s calling card is experience and trench toughness: in the 2022 season, the VMI defensive lineman started six games before a season-ending injury and still produced 11 tackles, 1.0 sack, two pass breakups, and a hurry. He earned VMI’s reserved No. 0 jersey in 2021, a nod to on-field production, classroom standards, and leadership, which hints at a high-character, high-effort fit. If a team needs a mature interior defender who can hold up, flash disruption, and set a tone, Weaver checks the “reliable grown-man football” box.
