high-motor Rice captain with proven pass-rush production
Pearcy is a reliable, battle-tested edge linebacker whose value comes from production, leadership, and durability: Rice called him a rare three-year captain who played in a school-record 58 career games, finished among the Owls’ all-time leaders in sacks and tackles for loss, and entered 2024 with 13 career sacks and 27.5 TFLs. He also brings special-teams utility and a reputation as a playmaker with speed and versatility, which makes him attractive for teams looking for a tough, high-effort, multiple-role linebacker rather than just a stat sheet guy.[3][14][16]
