developmental edge rusher still waiting for his first Arkansas State snap
Puhek enters Arkansas State as a **project DE** with intriguing high-school production — 23 tackles, eight tackles for loss and 48 tackles with eight sacks in his senior and junior seasons, respectively — but he did not see game action in 2023, so his current value is about upside, not proven college output. His appeal is likely in the traits that usually travel well for edge defenders: pass-rush background, disruptive backfield instincts and developmental room, making him more of a fit for a staff that can redshirt, coach and build than one needing immediate impact.
