Vincent Paige Jr. is Southern’s disruptive, every-down linebacker
In 2024, Vincent Paige Jr. emerged as a high-impact defender for Southern, starting all 10 games and leading the Jaguars with 84 tackles while adding 10.5 tackles for loss, 5.5 sacks, six QB hurries, and two forced fumbles; ESPN also listed him with 73 tackles and 4.5 sacks in its stat line, showing he consistently lived in the backfield and around the ball. His value goes beyond numbers: at 6'0", 225, he profiles as a physical, active, downhill linebacker whose production suggests good feel, effort, and finishing ability. If you need a tone-setter who can chase, hit, and create negative plays, he looks like a strong fit.[1][2]
