Malik Puryear brings size, edge, and a proven backfield-chasing resume to Charlotte
In the 2024 season, Malik Puryear is a 6-foot-5, 260-pound defensive lineman for Charlotte with a disruptive college track record and a clear pass-rush profile. He arrived after two seasons at Coahoma C.C., where he posted 27 tackles, 12.0 tackles for loss, and 6.5 sacks in 15 games, signaling real splash-play ability rather than just eat-blocks grunt work. His fit is simple: long frame, heavy hands, and enough burst to stress the edge, making him the kind of DL who can raise a front’s ceiling if he stays healthy and keeps stacking reps.
