Purdue’s hard-hitting, early-career safety with a nose for the football
Robert Gregory’s Purdue profile shows a versatile, physical defensive back who moved from running back to safety and then produced his best season in 2015, when he started nine games and posted 50 tackles, 1 interception, and 1 fumble recovery. His differentiator is all-around toughness: Purdue listed him at 6-foot-1, 219-225 pounds, and even early reports noted he ran hard and didn’t shy away from contact. For a team, that reads as a reliable, downhill defender with proven special-teams value and a blue-collar edge.
