Ernest Suttles brings size and occasional splash-play ability to Memphis’ DL rotation
Suttles is a long, physical defensive lineman at 6-foot-5 and 265 pounds who has flashed disruption for Memphis, including a sack in the 2016 win over Tulane, which hints at pass-rush upside beyond a typical run-stopper.[3][2] His profile suggests a developmental front-seven piece with good length and power, but the public data here is limited and does not show a clear current-year workload or injury context, so he reads more as a rotational depth fit than a proven every-down difference-maker.[3][1]
