Freshman DL Terry Rutledge brings size, speed, and developmental upside to Alcorn State
Terry Rutledge enters the 2026 season as a 6-foot-3, 240-pound freshman defensive lineman for Alcorn State, with listed 4.7-speed and a high-school background that included playing end, tackle, and noseguard. His appeal is clear: positional versatility, length, and enough athletic juice to project as a disruptive interior piece if the technique catches up. There’s not much public college production yet, so this is more about traits and fit than box-score bragging rights. If a team wants a developmental DL with physical tools and room to grow, Rutledge is worth a close look.
