Ben Bell brings proven edge pressure and veteran production to Virginia Tech’s defensive line
Bell is a high-motor, experienced edge defender whose 2025 season at Virginia Tech showed steady disruption: 40 tackles, 5.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks, six QB hurries, and a fumble recovery in 12 games with 11 starts. He also came in with strong recognition on major award watch lists, which signals national-level respect for his impact. What makes him appealing is not just the stat line, but his blend of urgency, production, and added value as a reliable all-around DL who can create negative plays without needing constant schematic help.
