veteran Arizona linebacker with a tackling-first, blue-collar profile
Craddock enters the 2026 season as a 5th-year Arizona linebacker at 5'10", 221 pounds, bringing proven production and a low-mistake, high-effort style that coaches love. In the 2024 season, he posted 53 tackles, 7.5 tackles for loss, 4.5 sacks, 10 quarterback hurries, and a forced fumble, then in the 2025 season he was limited to four games by injury but still flashed with seven tackles, a TFL, a QB hurry, a pass breakup, and a fumble recovery. He looks like a fit for a defense that values instincts, disruption, and toughness over pure size.
