High-motor Kentucky edge with real freshman production
Cowan flashed as a true impact freshman in 2025, posting 13 tackles, 4.5 tackles for loss, 2.5 sacks and 2 forced fumbles for Kentucky, which is the kind of disruptive edge production that wins downs even before the box score catches up. At 6-foot-3, 247 pounds, he brings burst, toughness and a strong motor, and his background as a three-star recruit who earned a regional defensive player of the year nod suggests steady upward growth rather than a finished product. He looks like a fit if your team wants an energetic, descending-edge defender who can create chaos off the line.[2][12][9]
