Josh Underwood brings size and upside to UAB’s defensive line
Underwood is a big-bodied defensive lineman with the frame and early power traits UAB likes to develop, listed around 6-foot-1 to 6-foot-2 and roughly 249 to 315 pounds across recruiting and roster sources.[1][2][3][5] He was evaluated out of Fultondale High as a strong-side defensive end, and the main appeal is his raw strength and motor rather than proven college production, since UAB’s roster page shows no stats yet.[2][3][5] That makes him more of a developmental fit than an immediate finished product.
