Anthony Corona is a rising, high-motor linebacker coming off a productive 2025 season at Illinois State
In the 2025 season, Anthony Corona was a valuable reserve linebacker for Illinois State, appearing in 15 games and posting 43 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, and a sack, which suggests an active, disruptive style rather than just clean-up production.[3] The clearest differentiator in the available reports is his instinctive, high-volume tackling profile and competitive edge; earlier recruiting coverage also framed him as a leader-type defender with strong physical tools and big-play upside, making him a fit for teams that value toughness, special-teams value, and developmental room.[1][6][8]
