Deonte Anderson gives Mississippi State a sturdy, experienced edge rusher with early-season disruption upside
In the 2025 season, Deonte Anderson has been a steady rotational presence for Mississippi State at defensive line, recording 5 tackles, 1.0 tackle for loss, and 1.0 sack through the games tracked in September. At 6-foot-3 and 280 pounds, his value is more about rugged size, leverage, and effort than flashy counting stats, and he has already shown he can get into the backfield. For a team needing a physical, senior DL who brings toughness and dependable downhill play, he looks like a useful fit rather than a headline-grabbing star.
