German-born depth linebacker with special-teams grit
Fabian Weitz is a Buffalo linebacker whose value has come less from box-score fireworks and more from dependable, assignment-sound play and special-teams effort. In his college career at Buffalo, he appeared in 22 games and recorded 12 total tackles, with his 2022 season showing four tackles in eight games, mostly on special teams. The big differentiator is his background: a long-traveled, international defender who stayed in the program for years and was praised as a tough, willing contributor. He looks like a fit for a team that wants energy, discipline, and depth rather than a headline-grabbing stat monster.
