Veteran ECU LB with 200+ Tackles and Battle-Tested Grit
Mike Edwards III, a four-year letterman who appeared in 49 career games with 34 starts across Georgia Southern and East Carolina, brings proven tackling prowess (212 career stops, including 59 tackles and 7 TFL in 2021-22 at GSU) and special teams reliability to the Pirates' defense[1][5]. His differentiator is sideline-to-sideline intensity and multi-phase versatility, making him a coach's dream for high-motor leadership without noted injury red flags. Care because he's a plug-and-play starter elevating any G5 unit; perfect fit for teams needing tough, experienced LBs in run-heavy schemes[5].
