Joseph Adedire is a battle-tested edge with a fresh runway at NC State
A fifth-year DE for NC State, Joseph Adedire brings proven production and a sturdy motor: he posted 25 tackles, 4 tackles for loss, 1 sack, and 3 quarterback hurries at Texas Tech in the 2024 season, then was described as one of NC State’s best defensive performers in a 2025 game and as a high-effort edge threat with a relentless motor. He’s a strong fit if you want experience, physicality, and pass-rush juice from the edge — especially after returning from injury and working back into game shape.
